This is nice to know. With it so cold out I have decided to give it a shot. I've read the errata, release notes and known issues. I have Mageia 4 downloading now with about an hour left.
I don't have any questions other than am I correct that it should be basically ok and should be up-gradable to final with no problem? By basically I mean if something don't work I'm not completely new and can probably fix it...I thought it would be nice to help out and see how it runs on my machine.
I have an i5 with onboard video and a ATI 6870 and SSD's with UEFI so if it can do that and run afterwards then it's pretty good.
I have so many tweaks I hate to re-do them so I hope it keeps most. I'll report back...and I like to mess with stuff...I won't just go back to web browsing and call it ok...I'll play around with stuff and see that they run etc.
I still have a couple of minor bugs I have not found for 2>3 upgrade, one being Kmail...hitting Check Mail doesn't get the mail...I have to hold down the button and select the account...been through it a thousand times and gave up, it does work, so I won't report that as a Mageia 4 bug, but I'll report if it fixes it and I bet it does...new KDE.
