So I was poking around DistroWatch out of boredom... and saw that in the past 6 months, Mageia had taken #2 spot in page hit rankings (dethroning everything except Linux Mint).
It's a fork of Mandriva, but I'm willing to try it, since I'm kinda upset with openSUSE 12.2.
Maybe it's time for me to move on again (:/) If Mageia works out well, I may say goodbye to openSUSE, since Radeon/FGLRX is no longer a problem with the 3.x kernel.
Well, I won't abandon the openSUSE 11.3 installations I currently have though, that's just stupid. (XD)
A personal blog on my thoughts and feelings of the things I do with hardware and software components of computers, as well as some other miscellany.

openSUSE 12.2
Well, it was finally released yesterday. I finally got around to downloading it today and burning it...
The "firefly" loading screen is refreshing and nice to look at. But the background is still screwed up... So it seems that I won't be installing it anytime soon... What I'm gonna have to do is to just stay with what I have now and upgrade certain packages manually... *sigh*
Another annoying thing I've noticed with the 3.x kernel is that the CPU fan is kicked up to max. :/
Well, there's really not much more to say.
