[linrad] Re: Missing lvgagl in Mandrake 10.1

["Dave Edwards" <dave@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I don't think that was the case as I made sure that a symbolic was on 
it so both locations ok.
I had an odd error on installing svga saying something about the 
checksum was wrong so I will start agn and take more note of it 
instead of continuing regardless :-).

Its a shame that mandrake have dropped these packages from their 
freebie distro but at least they are downloadable at no charge. First 
impressions of the new 'easier to use' Mandrake are poor, they still 
have a long way to go till I would recommend this to my grannie :-)
I will let you know if I have success (before the xyl kicks me out of 
the shack this evening hi)
