Mandriva, Mandrake, Lycoris I have completely skipped Mandrake Linux 9.2 because previous versions of Mandrake Linux were not exactly that "glamorous". However, I wanted to try out the new Linux kernel 2.6.x on my new Linare PC and so I decided to give Mandrake 10.0 Community Edition a spin. Here are some quick thoughts on it on how MandrakeSoft has earned back my trust with this release. Update: MadPenguin reviews it too. UPDATE 2: More bugs, more bugs. I have changed the rating of the software because as much as I keep using it, I find more and more and more bugs all over the place. MandrakeSoft should REALLY sit down and think hard about their QA department (I have already emailed them about it).

8/10?

8/10 for ease of use? That's one more point to reach Jaguar's 9/10. Personally, I would love to see Mandrake to choose a desktop. Perhaps KDE because if Red Hat included KDE in the first place, Mandrake may never have been concieved... Then start integrating Mandrake tools by hook and crook into KDE. That would boost ease of use a wee bit...
