[Mageia-discuss] Thoughts on an install

[Renaud (Ron) Olgiati]

Just installed M1X86_64.

None of the problems which recently plagued me with Mdv2010.0 and .1

BUT

A minor annoyance: in the users config at the end of the install, there are 
only two user icons to choose from; the Mdv user icons, with various skin and 
hair colours were much appreciated by the four users who work on this box.

A worse annoyance: under Mdv I could click right and left simultaneously to 
emulate centre centre click and paste; this does not work in Mageia.

The Printer install in MCC does not "see" my USB-connected HP all-in-one, I 
have to configure it with hp-setup.

A number of packages that I need (or like) have been dropped: Skype, Qcad, 
Gweled and Gxmessage to cite but a few; is it safe to install the Mdv2010.2 
rpms ? 
Or should I go back to 2010.2 to have them ?
 
Cheers,
 
Ron, seeding on the banks of the Paraguay River.
