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).

10CE has worked pretty good for my on my desktop. I did notice the knotes bug when starting from Kontact. 10CE is seriously broken on my Sony Vaio Laptop. USB does not work. I have to use the 2.4 kernel if I want to use my mouse or printer. The Mandrake tools definitely need to be reworked. They are not user friendly. I agree that many of the tools should be combined. My biggest pet peeve is that they split the rpmdrake tools into separate applications. It is a pain to have to start different apps if I want to install, remove, or manage media. They should all be together in one app!
