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).
I've tested mdk10 since beta1 and problems revolved around USB devices and sound.
Sound works now and USB mostly. USB problems stem from how "young" 2.6 kernel still is. 2.6.4 is just out, with a lot of USB fixes. That should remove the last problem for me : my All in one doesn't scan.
