Post-7.2, Mandrake made giant strides towards the LSB. This upset a lot of 
things, and consequently upgrading across this boundary is difficult and I 
recommend a reinstall. Back up all of your user data (docs and settings) 
first.

Actually, I recommend that you install Mandrake 8.1, not just because it has 
the latest and greatest fixes (e.g. noticeably better Mozilla and Konqueror), 
but because I've lost count of the number of games in it. (-:

Also, install KDE even if you never use it directly, because you can use the 
KDE games (kjezzball etc) in Gnome if you have the KDE libraries installed.
