Linux Several days ago I wrote a rather scathing article about my utter dismay and disappoint with Mandrake 9.1 and by association, Linux as a whole. Since then I have had many many flames and equally as many agreeing emails (is there a simple opposite word for flame?) Since then I have been trying, really really trying to get my system working fully. But time and again I'm coming up against the same brick wall of (un)usability, computer esotericism and down right idiocy.

urpmi?

You commented on using urpmi. But then you also mentioned th urpmi downloads everything for you.

If his ISDN adapter doesn't work under linux, how would he use urpmi to download everything he needs to get it to work?

Or is urpmi Win32 based?
