When I was running 9.1 I had no problems with texstar and you didn't say what version of MDK your using.

thats cuz texstar is only for 9.1.

they constantly destroyed my system when i used them.

Texstar's packages were some of the best. He is unfortunately not packaging for 9.2 right now.

...in fact, there is an entire madrake-based release using texstar's packages. It is based at PCLinuxOnline and called PCLinuxOS. It is a live cd distro like knoppix. I have tried the latest release (2k4) and it is very convenient. There is a very easy mechanism to install to hard drive if you like it.

Colnago,

"There is a very easy mechanism to install to hard drive if you like it."

How do I install to my hard disk ?

Thanks,
