Thanks, but it was me being dense or Mardi Gras hangover...  I got up 
installed Mageia and went to add repos with drakconf 'Full set of 
repositories' which did not work. This did work:

# urpmi.addmedia --distrib 
ftp://ftp-stud.hs-esslingen.de/pub/Mirrors/Mageia/distrib/cauldron/x86_64

and I'm rolling in Mageia. So for seems darn stable for a 'Pre-Alpha'. 
Thanks to all for the good work. Looking forward to Alpha 2. And will 
save the Alpha 1 DVD for posterity.

I tried openSuSE 11.4 RC 2 recently and I'm having more fun in Mageia. 
But then I am a Mandrivaphile.

FWIW: And so spellcheck actually thinks Mandrivaphile is a word? Who knew?
