Ok, I just grabbed a copy of Redhat 7.1 from their distribution site,
burned it to CD and installed it on a laptop.
Tell me if I'm crazy, or is it normal for Linux distributions these
days to ship with older KDE (this came with 1.1.2) and old buggy linux
kernels (2.2.16). linux-2.2.16 seems to have some odd bug with the
3c57x controller. Weird messages appear in syslog such as "eth0:
transmit timed out", and various other Tx/Rx errors. It surprises
me that Redhat ships with this kernel.
I'm new to the list so I was wondering what the general concensus
is with Mandrake 8.0.
My morning rant :)
