  1. Got #debian installed on my wife's computer. Been running #Xubuntu for years, but / ran out of space and I couldn't upgrade; could barely update. And, I am not a fan of snaps at all.

    Anyhow, back with Debian after about 20 years or so --- after #Gentoo and #MandrakeLinux (yeah, it was a while ago), Debian was one of my go-tos. Often one of the first I would recommend.

    Problem now is: I set up #Japanese input for my wife years ago. No idea what I did. Need to figure out again.

  3. Buenas noticias para los linuxeros nostálgicos que añoran la era de Mandrake Linux, pues el equipo de Mageia ha anunciado la llegada de la RC1 de Mageia 10, la cual incluye cambios muy interesantes!

    Nessuno parla mai di #Mageia, un'altra distribuzione europea dal passato glorioso (Mageia è l'erede naturale di #MandrakeLinux e #MandrivaLinux). Qualcuno di voi l'ha provata recentemente? @linux @[email protected] #UnoLinux

  9. @pabloyoyoista Many years ago, #MandrakeLinux ran a forum where any user with some technical expertise could help others. I still treasure the T-shirt I received for this.

  10. Before Ubuntu, there was a Linux desktop called Mandrake Linux. Simple, stylish, and way ahead of its time. 🔥

    J'ai essayé pendant un temps #MandrakeLinux puis #Mandriva, mais jamais #Mageia

    Je ne nierai pas ma préférence tout de même pour #Ubuntu (pas seulement parce que ça a été ma première distro à 100% et sans dual-boot) ou dérivée.

    Certes, elle n'est ni Française ni Européenne, mais d'une part elle a un cycle de vie que je trouve à la fois clair (2 maj majeures/an en avril et octobre) et pertinente (LTS tous les 2 ans) ; et d'autre part #Canonical propose un support professionnel à celui qui le souhaite.

  13. Got this as a present today. Boy, that was a long time ago.

  14. @gael
    My first serious tries with #Linux were with a #MandrakeLinux dual-boot, and later with the LiveCD version.

    I didn't succeed in going forward with it, I wasn't ready for it. But I found it nicely interesting.

    I succeded many years later with #Ubuntu.

    Many thanks to you and your team!

  15. I have just sent a email to devel list (to request a new package inclusion on nongnu-elpa) and i have checked the last time i have sent an email to that list was 20 years ago in 2003 😅 :

    #MandrakeLinux was my first distro, my entry into the #GNU / #Linux world .. "a few" years ago.
    I have since tried various other things and have long since landed on my beloved #Debian (with a #Manjaro install on the laptop). The review seemed good to me and I think it was worth sharing. The beauty of Linux is that everyone finds their favorite #distro sooner or later.
