[NTLUG:Discuss] Linux on Laptop

[Ralph Green, Jr.]

Howdy,
  I tried the community version on Mandrake 10.1 and the very first
program I wanted to install was not on the CD.  There was no Ruby, so I
just set that distro aside.  I installed the official 10.1, which became
available last week.  It seems good so far.  Install it, add the penguin
liberation front sources, and it puts together a pretty nice setup that
I am still testing.  The only slight negative I have seen so far is that
Mandrake 10.1's Gnome is only version 2.6.  I have been using version
2.8 under Ubuntu and 2.8 is better.
Good day,
Ralph
