Howdy,
I am a bigger fan of Mandrake than most people in this group, but my
initial experiences with 9.2 make me think this release came out a little
soon. I got my first 9.2 system up tonight and there is a obvious
repeatabe problem that is moderately serious. If you open Nautilus and
double click on an image to view it, press the back arrow to go back to the
thumbnails and then double click on another images, memory usage shoots
up. I opened an 82K jpeg and memory use went up more than 500 meg. Yes, I
said meg, not K. Wow.
I know about the problem with 9.2 killing LG CD-ROM drives. It loks
like this is LG's fault, but a little longer testing cycle would probably
have turned this up, too.
Good luck,
Ralph
