Default mandrake rpm available for testing

An rpm which should add menu entries for LimeWire on Mandrake Linux is available at

http://www.limewire.org/zlatin/LimeW...1.i386.mdk.rpm

(make sure you have installed the Sun java rpm from http://www.java.com first)

Please give this a try if you have a Mandrake system. In case Limewire fails to start from the menu entry, typing "limewire" in a terminal will print some debug information which can help us nail down any problems.

Thanks in advance.
