(just simply starts laughing) .................................................... ...................................... ...................................... Ohhhh thanks for the story MikeX. i really wish the XP people luck, every time an update comes out it's almost like it's random who gets hit with problems. go figure. time like this make me glad that i run OS X and Unix on my PCs. I have one XP box at home, SP2 is installed, everything works. I need XP on one machine because of proprietary software that I use at work. But, on my other machines I use Linux. Big Bad Bill is coming....

Very cool, tictoc

Thanks for the quick reply, tictoc Interesting.....I didn't know the GUI was buggy for Mandrake updates, that could explain my inability to get updates or maybe I've @#*%ed something else up, lol. BTW, what was the cli command you used to download updates from Mandrake? I'll give that a try. Maybe updates are limited to club members. The Standard membership looks good, that's what I'll go with.

I kind of like this one by Lenny.... Fly Away ------Lenny Kravitz Written by: Lenny Kravitz I wish that I could fly Into the sky So very high Just like a dragonfly I'd fly above the trees Over the seas in all degrees To anywhere I please

Yeah, saw that too...If they release it the same way as MDK 10.1 official, I'll beat ya' on this one too... seems that club membership lasts a year and entitles me to download before it goes public. Think I'll be doing my laptop first with the other 2 machines to follow shortly after....Figure doing the install on the laptop is easier than the updates I've been negligent in installing...lol Cool. I've been thinking of joining the mandrake club, tictoc. I couldn't download any updates with Mandrake community 10.1. Is it expensive to join Mandriva? Yeah, you probably will beat me to it. I

Hi tictoc5150, Yes, that's what I meant to say, install. I don't actually ever upgrade; I like to wipe my drive and do a clean install. So I'll be doing a clean install on my Mandrake box of Mandriva Ltd. Edition 2005 when it becomes available. I read in a press release that'll it'll be available later his month. I too am becoming tired of installing distros

Welcome, OldTimer, to Besttechie.net This is the best forum on the net

Agreed. It is a stupid name. But I also love Mandrake.........................er Mandriva. I'm going to be downloading Mandriva Ltd. Edition 2005 when it goes public in a few weeks. Are you going to upgrade from 10.1, tictoc5150?

Yeah, thoughtless, and careless drivers can certainly be annoying and dangerous.
