Wow. Thanks, Tsuroerusu! Much appreciated.

Actually, the gulus.usherbrooke.ca resource in Quebec house quite a bit of Linux distro. related content. That's where I get all of my Slackware updates from, too.

Just updated Mandriva with KDE 3.5.1. These instructions you linked to worked like a charm. Thanks for mentioning it.

I've also been playing around with Gnome today. It's nice and all, but I think it hasn't changed my mind about favouring KDE. There's just something about how well KDE is integrated that I miss in Gnome.

Yeah I think I noticed this mirror had a lot of good stuff a few months back when I was looking for some sources.

Yeah I like the fact that I can use KGpg to import the keys from the SUSE Security Team and then instantly have KMail verify all the emails I get from their mailinglist :wink:
