Don't bother with RedHat if you want KDE -- use Mandrake

Looks good so far although I like to play with themes a lot. I always did like KDE better. Im downloading it right now. It has been hard to find an ftp site that wasnt full. Finally I found one though. Just curious concerning the nvidia driver thing. Did it require any modification of the config file, or did it work perfectly from the install?

slave:
Surprisingly it was rather easy to install the nvidia driver.  I didn't have to apply any strange patches or anything since Mandrake's kernel apparently doesn't have the backported 2.5 stuff like red hat is doing for 9.0.

Pantso:
I love the screenshots! KDE looks great!! Good job on Mandrake 9.1! I'll be waiting 'til it hits the stores here to get it, since I'm on 56K.   :(

slave:
Though, if you use Wine or Winex there will be a bug since Mandrake 9.1 uses a newer version of glibc that causes trouble with the sockets.  The workaround is to delete the socket everytime you start a program (easy to make it do it everytime if you make an alias for it -- just ask me if you have trouble)

SAJChurchey:
Can you go ahead and post the command to make that alias?
