While Mepis 6.50 is pretty cool, it is not without a few shortcomings that I have not been able to surmount:

1. There are some programs, non-KDE ones, that have incredibly tiny fonts in their menus. I have not been able to correct this. T'Bird and Firefox are affected as well as some other apps that are not from Mozilla.

2. Mepis does not automount anything on my system. Attempts to modify fstab are futile. It keeps getting refreshed with "noauto" on every line. Arrrgh.

So....it will not become a replacement for me.

I see Knoppix 5.2 is due out soon. Dare I break all the rules and install it to the HD?
