Try rufus.w3.org they have RPMs for just about anything you could
imagine, along with a searchable index. However if your running a
dialup connection, you may find you have to download several fairly
large RPMs. You then have to decide whether it's easier to grab
the FB sources and roll your own copy using your glibc, or whether
it's better to just grab a newer Mandrake (I just picked up 8.1 for
CDN $39 boxed set with 3CDs and a paper manual -- if your in
Canada try your local Futureshop)
