Guest joehill Posted March 26, 2003 Report Share Posted March 26, 2003 what's the big rush? will this do something 9.0 didn't do? no sarcasm, just curious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramfree17 Posted March 26, 2003 Report Share Posted March 26, 2003 what's the big rush? will this do something 9.0 didn't do? no sarcasm, just curious. mandrake is a bleeding-edge distro. not much fun in being bleeding-edge when you are one release behind. :#: and most are just after the updated and new packages. i for one am interested in what fruits the labors of the cooker development team has conjured. ciao!

ezroller Posted March 26, 2003 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2003 tyme, your site won't let me download cd2?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramfree17 Posted March 26, 2003 Report Share Posted March 26, 2003 any examples? i dont know about the new packages but for the updates, just consider all bugfixes to all packages that happened after 9.0 was released and at least 3 days before 9.1rc3 went final. im just pulling figures out of my head but the amount of updates in that timeframe is not trivial. plus i hear 9.1 has new support for zeroconf, WiFi, and some other things. not that i need those but then they are just icing on the cake. :) ciao!

tyme Posted March 26, 2003 Report Share Posted March 26, 2003 tyme, your site won't let me download cd2?! worked fine when i just now tried it, maybe it was a glitch...try it again :-). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyme Posted March 26, 2003 Report Share Posted March 26, 2003 joe: i've noticed some new packages that weren't in previous releases. ethtool is one of them, my friend uses it a lot for configuring his ethernet (he's a debian user). I'm currently learning how it works. Other than that, you have the new kernel, and just the regular large amount of updated software.

scoopy Posted March 26, 2003 Report Share Posted March 26, 2003 ezroller and tyme - I used this mirror last night, and I for some reason, had to press the play button on kget to force the download to start. I was using konq (KDE 3.1) to open the sight and normally the downloads start right away, but for some reason the iso's did not. The files also did not seem to finish, but the filesize was correct and the md5sums checked out. Also, 3 full ISO's in 2 and half hours, wow, that was nice, Go PSU.

tyme Posted March 26, 2003 Report Share Posted March 26, 2003 Also, 3 full ISO's in 2 and half hours, wow, that was nice, Go PSU. yeah, it's rarely linked to by mandrake (so no one really knows about it), but it has some nice speed, especially since i'm on the same network.

scoopy Posted March 26, 2003 Report Share Posted March 26, 2003 Oh, its listed, but they hide it under the "MandrakeSecurity MNF for i586 and more." heading. I have used it before seeing it is only a few hours away from me and thought it would help my speed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest gg4 Posted March 26, 2003 Report Share Posted March 26, 2003 Here's the one I used yesterday. I'm not too sure how it is now though. http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distri...drake-iso/i586/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
