static Posted August 28, 2003 Report Share Posted August 28, 2003 Oh! No! Don't worry guys - it's a security thing - should be ok when I get home :) Thanks for checking though! Anyway I just asked because I can't check at work - Turning my PC on tonight depended on whether or not we had rc1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

static Posted August 29, 2003 Report Share Posted August 29, 2003 Looking good man! I downloaded them last night and it's going on tonight! Yee-haw! Are there updates yet? Considering the 2.6.0 kernel is at test4, I'm guess Mandrake 10 (or X) will use it I hope? (probably 10.1) I read the list of why it's so much better and I was blown away. I can't wait for a mandrake that uses it - and the hardware vendors to awaken and see the ease of making drivers for it. We're about to witness a new era in linux acceptance worldwide.

Hopefully, the 2.6 kernel release will coincide with the release of resierFS4. That should make linux super fast !!! http://www.namesys.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
static Posted August 29, 2003 Report Share Posted August 29, 2003 By coincide I hope you mean reiser's out first - that way support will be in the kernel... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest anon Posted August 29, 2003 Report Share Posted August 29, 2003 By coincide I hope you mean reiser's out first - that way support will be in the kernel... Ofcourse :) I was thinking like, reiserFS on monday, kernel 2.6 on tuesday, MDK 9.5? on wednesday :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
static Posted August 29, 2003 Report Share Posted August 29, 2003 Aw yeah - next week is gonna be sweet! Seriously though, I believe Mandrake goes by a 3 release-per-year schedule... And then they up the major number. That's why 10 comes after 9.2 (<shrug>) and I hope it rolls that beautiful new bean footage (aka 2.6) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And then they up the major number. Yea, thats true, But, the 2.6 kernel and reiser4 are such big leaps forward, i think they would have to bring out another release even if it did screw up their release cycle.

Tuxiscool Posted August 29, 2003 Report Share Posted August 29, 2003 I read somewhere on KernelTrap.org that Reiser4 is expected to be one of the features implemented into 2.6 before 2.6.0. So we should see it in the next Mandrake release(i mean after 9.2). I expect the next release (after 9.2) to be Mandrake X (when someone had an interview with one of the head guys at Mandrakesoft he was talking about 'Mandrake X'). and anyway, look at the way mandrake has been released other times. 8.0, 8.1, 8.2 ----> 9.0, 9.1 and each of these 'Major number' releases, it has had much improved features. I intend to buy 'Mandrake X' because it should have (by the time it's released): -- Kernel 2.6 -- KDE 3.2 (maybe 4 :) ) -- Gnome 2.4 -- Reiser4 (oh yeah!!) :) -- OpenOffice 1.1 :) I expect Mandrake X to be an excellent release (and a huge leap forward) and should be released in about March or April (a great birthday present for me :) ). But i doubt i will buy 9.2, i will just download it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darkelve Posted August 31, 2003 Report Share Posted August 31, 2003 Anyone got screenshots of Mandrake 9.2RC1? Or isn't that any different from 9.1? Darkelve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
