+<PRE>Not sure if this is the place to bring up installation issues but here goes.
+
+Downloaded my very first ISO and burnt it to DVD. Installed Mageia 1 on
+laptop without difficulty except the one which has happened in every one
+of my 60-70 Linux installs over the past 15 years, no network access
+during installation so no way of installing any upgrades until after the
+reboot. Anyway the GNOME desktop came up fully customized exactly as on
+Mandriva but none of my home grown programs upon which my life depends
+would run =&gt; no ruby. All the media sources available were installed
+but urpmi could not find anything to do with ruby except a few KDE
+development packages. Does anybody know where ruby for Mageia lives?
+And, if it is not available is there any likelihood that the Mandriva
+RPMs would install properly in Mageia?
+
+Post install Mageia 1 was unable to start up wlan which had been running
+happily under Mandriva 2010.1 from an Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless
+3945 ABG [Golan] device, vintage 2008. The wireless LED never comes on
+so no local networks listed.
+
+Like many users I am very grateful for the time and effort the
+community has put into helping Mandriva refugees like me. It looks like
+a huge job but unfortunately I cannot offer any help re missing packages
+because I am a fulltime carer and housekeeper for my invalid wife and,
+yes I know, everybody has problems.
+
+Best regards
+
+Len
