DragonMage Posted February 19, 2003 Report Share Posted February 19, 2003 Hmm.. I was waiting for a new ISO after beta 3. I guess RC1 is next.. I am surprised mandrake doesn't do one more beta... oh well.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I could install it from cooker but I want to wait until 9.1 final is out, something to look forward to;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest duir66 Posted February 19, 2003 Report Share Posted February 19, 2003 I've been using Beta 3 on my main box and I love it. A few minor bugs but nothing extraordinary. I will buy this release - no question about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ab2ms Posted February 23, 2003 Report Share Posted February 23, 2003 So how is 9.1 looking so far? I haven't had the time to check it out, but was wondering if it's much of a leap from 9.0 or not. Hopefully it is a good step forward. I will try it when I get time, but that is scarce lately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest duir66 Posted February 24, 2003 Report Share Posted February 24, 2003 ab2ms, for me 9.1 has been a jewel. I have 845 chipset and a lot of the glitches in 9.0 have been solved. I've definitely noticed a performance increase in 9.1 and KDE 3.1, Gnome 2.2 are sw33t beyond anything previous. I cannot wait for final to come out. This might just be the one.

phunni Posted February 24, 2003 Report Share Posted February 24, 2003 Is fluxbox included in 9.1? It wasn't in 9.0 which I thought was a shame Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest anon Posted February 24, 2003 Report Share Posted February 24, 2003 Is fluxbox included in 9.1? It wasn't in 9.0 which I thought was a shame Its on the Contrib cd.

Guest CloakedPenguin Posted February 24, 2003 Report Share Posted February 24, 2003 performance increase in 9.1 and KDE 3.1, Gnome 2.2 are sw33t beyond anything previous. I have to agree with you on the performance increase in 9.1, as for performance increase in KDE 3.1 all I have are BUGS BUGS BUGS! But then again, KDE has never worked properly for me. I prefer Gnome :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aRTee Posted February 24, 2003 Report Share Posted February 24, 2003 Found gnome less responsive than kde, both look good, gnome mdk galaxy theme is beautiful! I will probably continue to use kde though, since I cannot get gnome to behave the way I want (focus follows mouse, click: makes active and passes click -- doesn't raise window), couldn't with mdk9.0/gnome2.0 unless going to sawfish but didn't manage to get other things done, like sending gkrellm to all desktops... 9.1rc1 looks good, but there are bugs here and there. I urge everyone to get it and test it, and send in your bugreports: https://qa.mandrakesoft.com If the final has problems and you didn't send them in, it's your problem! Now is the moment they can still fix it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
