Has anyone tried out the new version of Mandrake?

I recently obtained the download version (only has the first 3 CDs) and
installed it on a laptop.  This is the first time I've used Mandrake
(I've used RedHat/Fedora for the last few years) and I came across some
issues that I'm trying to determine if they're bugs or 'features'...

For instance, logged in as a normal user, trying to add a new printer
via one of their many printer guis, I get prompted for a
username/passwd.  Entering 'root' doesn't work.  However, if I initiate
the same gui interface from the command line as root, I can add the
printer.

There were other things as well.  In any case, if anyone is familiar
with Mandrake (and specifically Mandrake 10.0), I'd be interested in
talking with them.

Thanks,

-Hani
