Thanks for your mail.
That would upset me, too.
Many users of the forum have run into problems with Mageia 2. We've
talked about this in last council meeting and I have no doubt that this
will be discussed in mageia-dev meeting and that the problem will be
properly addressed.
There are boot-nonfree.iso's that contain the proprietary divers
(including Ati Radeon). Links to the iso's can be found at the bottom of
<A HREF="http://www.mageia.org/nl/downloads/">http://www.mageia.org/nl/downloads/</A> Make sure you choose one with
*nonfree* firmware.
I'll send a cc of this reply to mageia-discuss ml. Manuel is correct:
the bugsquad ml is not meant for this. If you want to reply, please do
it to: Mageia general discussions <<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-discuss">mageia-discuss at mageia.org</A>
Cheers,
Marja
