Hi , thank you once again for your e-mail, I have just stopped
for a cuppa and checked my mail, I have bought a copy of
Mandrake 8.2 but did not seem to have much luck with the
loading and setting the software up it seems a long time
loading and mind you it did find my Pinnacle capture card ,
I think that maybe SuSe is the way to go for now and I do
dislike the RH desktop like you , I have not tried Debian
yet but it is several months now since i decided to change
to Linux and this is the nearest yet I even bought a new
computer so that I could get sorted out with Linux,
Cheers Michael
