[ltp] Mandrake 8.0

[Bill Mair]

Just tried and failed to get Mandrake 8.0 up and running (reasonably).

Trial #1:
Graphical install didn't recognize my trackpoint.
continued - Couldn't get past network config without a mouse.

Trial #2:
Start again:
Graphical install didn't recognize my trackpoint.
continued - Skipped network config
X-config offered generic LCD's from 640x480 up to 1600x1400, but no
1280x1024 - TP770X :-((
Completed installation
Tried Xconfigurator
Tried mouseconfig

Gave up.... :-(

Not a good show from Mandrake.

Now reinstalling Red Hat 7.1 Seawolf.
