shadowmatrix 0 Posted May 1, 2004 I have had no problems at all with Mandrake 10 CE. Everything works and works very well. I have no complaints at all. Share this post Link to post
SoulNothing 0 Posted May 1, 2004 interestingly enough i also went for updates under my root account 677 mb of updates and it was done in 30 seconds and then the same list came back up i think im doing something wrong shadowmatrix good to here your system is problem freei think that the way mandrake acts depends on the user and the hardware something else im playing a nin music video a certain one and every single time i play it theres this blaring series of beeps then the system crashes i find it interesting to see the varied results maybe this is why i didnt like xp Share this post Link to post
Art_Oliver 0 Posted August 19, 2004 Recently upgrade from 9.1 to 10.0 CE because I want support for a TV Card ... I'm very unhappy with the upgrade, I pass from a stable working system to a "buggy" one, here first approach problems: - X crash using the XF86Config-4 generated by XFDrake. Solved using old XF86Config file ... but still having problems with ATI 9200 Radeon (fglrx) driver ... - During boot system always ask to boot in graphical, text, or debbuging mode. Don't understand why ...choosing graphical will now boot correctly in X ... - HSF Modem driver stop working. Must pay for a new driver with no speed restrictions (Linuxant). So system is Internet blinded (terrific ...). - Sound driver (nvaudio) stop working (OSS). No sound at all I will try ALSA service ... - Finding Files in KDE doesn't work. Application stop responding anytime you want search ... - Fonts in KDE are blurred... try to solve in KDE Control Center ... That's all for now!!! In the meanwhile to post this message and to working I use other OS ... Artur Oliveira Lisbon Portugal Share this post Link to post
