Guest Grim Reaper Posted January 3, 2004 Report Share Posted January 3, 2004 Linux-Mandrake is a friendly Linux Operating System which specializes in ease-of-use for both the home/office and servers. It is freely available in many languages throughout the world. Linux Mandrake is a complete pre-configured graphical Linux operating system. It's easy to install, easy to use and stable. Inside Linux-Mandrake, the graphical interfaces KDE, Gnome, AfterStep, Window Maker, IceWM etc. are fully integrated inside a very modern distribution, fully compatible with Red Hat applications (RPM packages). You don't have to spend hours to get all those graphical interfaces to work: once Linux-Mandrake is installed, everything worksdownload here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redhat Posted January 3, 2004 Report Share Posted January 3, 2004 Although I don't use Mandrake, I can't for tha life of me understand why it says KDE3 there when they should be including 3.1 not 3! 3.2's in BETA btw, lookin v snazy :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Grim Reaper Posted January 3, 2004 Report Share Posted January 3, 2004 if no one installs it and tests it, how are they going to find and iron out the bugs (if any).Its the people who test the beta versions that make things better for the rest of us.

Chris Posted January 3, 2004 Report Share Posted January 3, 2004 Because it's Linux and a Beta no one should install it apart from somebody who knows what they are doing and understands what a beta is.Oh and can understand how Linux works.supassword ;)Also we only have a few Linux users on here and there is only one that would probably undertake the gigantic download and install and then get ready to report the unknown bugs.But to keep the penguin on ice do not think about this download and the installation.If you do not know what your doing you could end up wiping Windows off your drive (if its on the same drive as Windows)....But if you want to try Linux, try a tested and trusted version for example Mandrake 9.2.

-pops- Posted January 4, 2004 Report Share Posted January 4, 2004 Not wishing to add any fuel to a potential conflagration here but, remember the title of this forum.Linux/Redhat/Mandrake issues should be discussed in their own locale.
