      From: bliss-sf4ever@dslextreme.com              hi fans of the draktools,               Well I tried to boot up a DVD written this afternoon of       OpenMandrivaLx_3beta1.x86_64.iso. This strangely enough uses       KDE's Plasma 5 and Wayland rather than X.               From Grub2 it would not complete the boot on my Pavilion.       I fell asleep waiting for it.        From the non-uefi menu it booted but seemed very slow       and unstable putting a lot of stress on my AMD A10 4 core processor.       according to the heat I felt coming thru the vents.        Once it was up it was no champion and while the Plasma 5       is colorful it represents no particular advance. The screen       felt quite unstable.               I may try to get it running on VirtualBox but am in no       hurry to try it again.        More about this later.               But I have to say I feel it is in the same league as       the Mageia-6-dev1-x86_64-DVD.iso. Some distance from a       distribution release.               bliss              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
