  1. Re:Does Mandrake Upgrade (Update?) Work Yet? on Mandrake, SuSE Ready New Releases · · Score: 1

    The 8.2 betas that I installed had an update rpms only option. That's what I tried and it worked just fine.

  2. Re:Linux is dying. on Mandrake, SuSE Ready New Releases · · Score: 1

    Thanks for reminding me. I was planning to download that today. I'm looking forward to trying their isos. http://www.gnu.org/software/hurd/

    ArmageTron rocks. IT's a multi-player 3D tron game. It's like snake running as a kernel module. I did an lsmod and found this:

    I'm using Mandrake 8.2 beta3 now, and I'm buying the box set at Walmart if its there. I'll never open it, but I'll probably never throw it away.

    Everyone should go to Walmart on the release date of these distros and request that Walmart has enough copies in stock for you and all your friends.
