Mandriva, Mandrake, Lycoris Mandriva has announced the launch of the final version of Mandriva Linux 2009 Spring (codename Pauillac). This new version comes with a host of improvements and changes, as always. Fun fact: this is the first release reported to us by Anne Nicolas instead of Adam Williamson. For those that keep score.

Does this version of KDE4 allow you to configure click-in-root-window window-list and application menus (what you get to in KDE3 by ControlCenter>Desktop>Behavior>Mouse Button Actions)? Every other WM I've used (since OLWM on Sparc2's around 1990) has allowed some measure of configurability here; from what I hear, KDE4 is completely broken in that regard.

Unless it does, it's good-bye to KDE for me and probably good-by to Mandriva/Mandrake after twelve years of use.


Since you seem to be a fan of the distribution wouldn't be easier if you just installed a different window manager - Fluxbox judging by the description of your needs - and retain all of the qualities that make Mandriva a good distro for you instead of switching distros completely?
