Can't Update Mandrake 10 Community

I have run all the Mandrake update servers and I am not able to update. I then tried to access them all via a browser and the only server that answeared was the czech one:

ftp://mandrake.contactel.cz/Mandrake.../Mandrake/RPMS

and it ask for a login name and password, so I think this one works, but is it a Mandrake Registered User Server Only?

If yes is there any other servers that I can use to update the distro, this is so much easier with suse.

The Mandrake 10.0 servers are currently down (info obtained from www.urpmi.org/easyurpmi) - I had the same problem - got around it by updating to Cooker.

If you decide to do the same, please be aware that cooker programs are unstable and your system may not work - although mine is fine.

thanks

Wait a few days. They're fixing it.

is it possible to go from running cooker to 10.0 official? I would love to use gnome 2.6, but it's broken in cooker (at least on my machine).

That's possible, but you'll have to remove as much of it as you can first. I just made an updated list with easyurpmi, but quickly changed that from the cooker sources that were proposed to official instead. Be sure to add the updates as a source and you'll likely be fine.

BTW, can you access Gnome now? What's messed with it. May be a config. I updated last week and opted to accept an updated config file instead of using the one I had and it killed my booting to init5. Had to manually edit the file to fix my boo boo. (was too sleepy to click NO)
