So far it works well- for one thing the 9.2 RC2 networking problems seem solved. After updating from 9.1 the basic set of icons on the start menu went fishing, but this is not a major problem.
It features new kernel 2.4.22 (no 2.6.X yet...), Gnome 2.4.0 (KDE has stayed to 3.1.3). Koffice and Openoffice are still based on beta releases (1.3 beta3 and 1.1.0 RC4 respectively), but since OOo 1.1.0 final is very easy to install it doesn't matter much.
Unfortunately K3B version has stayed to 0.9 and not the 0.10.1 alpha (which is not an alpha at all, and has great DVD burning support), and urpmi is still a long way from what Mandrake envisions for their installation system.
