   I meant what everybody else means.  If you can't read, don't answer.  I   
   married somebody who is more interested in looking for typos than in what   
   the text is trying to say.

   As for the rest, don't bother.  I was merely alerting people to a potential   
   issue. The Fedora guy sayd his Version 15 was OK, but 16 was not.  It may be   
   the issue with Mandriva as well, but I would reserve judgment until the   
   developers release a link to the official Alpha, at least.  At the moment,   
   thety are merely saying that it exists.  Hopefully when the community wiki   
   gets up, it will be better organized.   
      
   Mageia does it better, on both counts.
