ok trying my usual aproach of an upgrade with the mageia 3 beta1 cd to fix boot block but the installation keeps failing because
lib64gamin is obsoleted by installed newer version.
this has NEVER been a problem in the past, with an upgrade to fix a boot loader issue, why is the installer refusing to just accept that the newer version is installed and just move on.

ok still a problem X wont start keeps having an issue with ld.so.1
tried drakconf to change graphics driver to vesa or neuveu or nvidia but just failed with errors relating to ld.so.1.
so install is now stuffed and requires re-install from scratch to fix.
re-installing from scratch
