Mandrake Linux

MandrakeSoft has launched an operation called "Operating System Refugee Offer". This enables anyone who purchased a commercial license of any operating system to get access to Mandrake Linux at a very low price.

The Mandrake Linux Community Newsletter for November 28, 2002 is available. This week: MandrakeSoft welcomes new CEO; product special on MYSQL products & services; Mandrake 9.0 speeds into the installation lead; and much more.

The Mandrake Team looks at the first year of MandrakeClub. "MandrakeClub.com is turning into a major multilingual news and discussion forum for everything related to MandrakeSoft and Mandrake Linux"

The everybuddy package released with Mandrake Linux 9.0 had broken support for the MSN and Yahoo protocols. This update fixes those problems, as well as some other minor bugs that caused random crashes.

A bug in the lm_sensors scripts prevented lm_sensors from loading all required modules. This off-by-one error would load all modules less one module, resulting in problems. This update corrects the problem.

A bug exists in the galeon web browser when using it with EHWM -compliant window managers such as metacity. When galeon is in fullscreen mode, the GNOME panel is below the fullscreen window and is not readable. This update fixes the problem.
