Has anyone tried to install SEQ on Mandrake 9.0beta 4 yet. I did a search for it but didn't see it, i saw a post about 9.0beta 2 tho. Was just curious before I install it tonight.

Then looking at some of the other posts I'm almost thinking of getting 8.2 and try that one first.

Thanks

I'd never recommend to install a Beta (of any program) as a first install. Go with the 8.2

If you can wait a bit more, they are already on RC1 for Mandrake 9.0, won't be too much longer before the final release.

Actually, i have it running on 9.0b4 right now..

Installed without a hitch.. though i was hasty and missed the install RPMs of pine, and.. something else... a quick rpmfind.net visit fixed that...

Havent bothered to find and burn RC1... since i only just put beta4 on here a week or so ago :/

Hoping the final release doesnt break anything.. my box is running so well now..


BTW... the KDM login manager SUCKS!

to change it to the gdm login manager, edit /etc/sysconfig/desktop to read DISPLAYMANAGER=gdm instead of =kdm... this isnt configureable through a menu in x... that ive found.
