<pre wrap="">The only thing I *would* say with Mandrake is that
as a general rule (in
my experience anyway) how the mouse behaves during
the install is the
opposite of how it behaves post-install. Weird I
know but true. Many
times I've installed and found the mouse to work
during install, but
then dies running the installed system. However
I've always got it to
run with a little fiddling.
In other words, don't despair if it doesn't work
during the install,
just go ahead anyway :)

That's bizarre. I installed Mandrake 10.1 and found my
mouse worked as normal all the way - during and after
installation.
If only using Mandrake had been as good. The dial-up
is less than intuitive.

The major factor behind my move from MDK to SuSE was 10.1 absolutely
hosing my dialup settings, and I just couldn't get it to reconnect.
Seeing as I was due Broadband in a few weeks after I didn't fancy
trying to fight it for the Speedtouch modem, and so I flipped over to
SuSE 9.1, because Linux Magazine gave away a free full dvd of 9.1 Pro.<br>
<br>
So far its been excellent, the Speedtouch took a little fiddling but
its been mostly excelent, restoring my IMAP folders for me and my wife
was childsplay and so far its been nought but good with SuSE, so much
so that my wife chose it as well when XP went to the great bitbucket in
the sky for the last time<br>
