I did a Mandriva upgrade and to restore my package lists and tried a full 
uninstall that way.  It aborted when it couldn't uninstall a package from a 
small non-Mandriva repo I had disabled.

I restored my system, removed the package and tried again.  This one  was very 
slow (perhaps normal) and failed to install 2/3 of the packages.  Nevertheless 
it went through the bootloader and config stages and was able to reboot into 
level 3.  I saw most of KDE being installed, but X couldn't run. It seems 
hardly useful as a bug report.  If it is really a bug, somebody else will have 
it in more detail.  I will try again from the DVD.  That at least will follow 
what was asked for.  If you want a bug report, what should it contain?

Back on my old Mandriva 2010.2.

Doug.
