I upgraded my Mdv 2010.2 to Mageia 1 RC last Friday.

No big issues, just:

* The X resolution is kind of strange.  The bottom of my KDE desktop
was gone.  I tried to change the resolution in my X settings but
nothing changed.  Now I changed a screen (to let it detect the screen
resolution automatically).  The bottom of the KDE desktop was still
gone (my original panel), but at least the applications would not be
launched at that position.
* Now I have two notification bubble everytime my KDE wants to note me
something.

But it could still work.  The Mageia system is running fine in my PC now.
