![]() ![]() rpmdrake and rpmdrake-remove install and remove the packages. Westy: because the apps do different things. i586 with i686 optimisations is still used as the arch system because very few packages benefit from full i686 / athlon optimisation and it’s not worth losing Pentium compatibility. Unless this introduces bugs, in which case they aren’t. What the hell does “pay more attention” to optimisations mean? For packages that benefit, they’re built with -O2 or -O3. Bloat is lots of useless stuff that slows the software down. How can a kernel be bloated? Lots of stuff does NOT = bloat. Oh, yes, i’m sure EVERYONE would’ve thought that was a good idea. ![]() iso’s delayed for a month simply so the box sets would come out at the same time – even though the distribution was completely finished? So you would have preferred to have the release of the. and hire someone to fix the bugs.ī) do something about the late sec. – move mandrakeexpert to the club sectionĪ) set up a decent bugzilla (last time i checked you were only supposed to report bugs against cooker/beta). Now you can track your orders at mdkstore, but from what i’ve heard the “real” problems have barely gotten better (i bought my 9.0 pack at my local store after hearing the story’s).Īlso mandrakeclub is pretty nice, but make it even better and it will actually be worth the money Wild “improvements” and untested software just don’t cut it. Mandrake needs to pick a direction, make decisions based on it and work towards the future. I told this after the 9.0 release and i have the same feeling after 9.1: I would have to agree with sell more that the future for mandrake lies elsewhere (cfr lindows/xandros/…) Just cramming a few cd’s full of untested or trial software is not worth the price Most of the extra soft you are getting is either a trial or not well tested (so you can dl it from the web and install it with less hassle) I think it’s worth buying linux, but not the mdk packs. And why if it doesnt get the signature for the file does it want to just quit and ask me if I want to erase ALL the RPMS I downloaded? Why not just move on? SO I say NO and then I have to find where they are cached and manually install them? 9.1 is very nice, but its looking for 9.2 To update it I have to do it again, one step to update, quit that app, then go back to the download manager. WHY? Why isnt it integrated? Two steps to do the same thing. Then go to update manager then get stuff. I mean come on I have to configure the manager, then update it then quit that app. What is up with the package manager using Mandrake. But I really should get off my lazy butt and gentoo them both. Easy enough.īUT my laptop is a different beast, it just doesnt work on it. Its ok, I do break things, so I reinstalled it. Fast, Stable, so many mdk.rpms that I am amazed….EXCEPT: I did break it. Yes it does, and I cant say anything but good things about it. ![]()
