I think I still need a handbook ! But waiting for this month magazines
is a good idea as well ! (Payot is a good idea, too). I tried last
year the Mandrake attached to PC Expert, but my ISDN card did not work
with this distribution (internal timeout error, it said). I also tried
the Suse 5.3 2 years ago I believe, but I had then so many problems
with my display and my old Compaq Deskpro and my sound card and with
almost every piece of hardware that I finally gave up. I hope that the
new versions will be easier to install and to configure. 

Thank you all
