I have a dual boot with winxp and mandrake.
Issues:
1. Mandrake will not shut down the computer. It did it once then it
stopped shutting down.
2. I tried to install thunderbird and firefox and got nowhere. 
   I have downloaded both apps but I can't get pass the download to
install. I am doing something wrong but I can't figure it out. 
3. I am taking a linux class at Gateway but the class is not at this 
point of installing apps and drivers. 
So I need a little kick start tomorrow.
Thanks
Mike
