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.

I remember the first time I installed Vector Linux. It took me a whole week to get X up and running. I didn't realize that xfree86config started a fresh file each time you ran it. "Hide the sledge hammers" but I got it going finally. I sure wanted to put that partition on a disk image!
