Since we now have fixed most of the bugs, we have decided that it is time to add some nice default kdm and kde themes instead of the official mandriva ones.

Why you still use the old Mesa 5.1?
Because it works fine. :)
We do and use MDE rpms, thats why we say/advise/recommend in our site the required repositorys to all installs and executions go smoothlyThe reason i have upgraded to latest Mesa-6.5 is that this is needed to get latest dri support.
Together with my dkms-drm that provides the latest dri kernel drivers.
Of course it is ok to use Mesa-5.1 as long as you dont have one of the newer graphics cards,
or if you are satisfied to run without 3d support.
The main upgrades i have achieved becusea of this is a very improved radeon dri support and also for other drivers like intel , s3v ,via , sis ....
I did ask the official Mandriva developers why Mesa has not been upgraded when official stable Mesa now is 6.4.1 , the answer was that there is no active Mandriva Mesa maintainer.
I have been building current Mesa for Mandriva for several years and it does of course only improve dri.

the error happens if you try to update or add the hdlist while it is being generated.
the only solution is to delete the repository and add it again.

New versions of kdebase,kdeutils,kdewebdev,kdeaccessibility,kdemultimedia and kdenetwork, that should fix all upgrade conflicts
And to get best resluts when upgrading remeber to move old .kde folder to some other name and let new kde create new settings, to avoid conflicts with old settings,that can cuase doubled menus and other problems.

If you read the beginning of this thread you will see that my version of xorg
is not same as the one in cooker and also not like the one on sos
This xorg version i the only one with fully working 3d support.
It also has updated radeon tv out, latest sis, via openchrome and updated matrox drivers.
This version also has Mesa-6.4.1 = the current official version not the ancient Mesa-5.x used in Mandriva.
And it also needs the new dkms-drm installed to update the kernel 3d drivers.
It is available in http://www.mde.djura.org/index2006.0.html
