Software installation error

I am new to Mandriva. I have installed the 2008 relase and all seems to work, but I cannot install any software. Each time I try to install something it keeps telling me that there is a non-valid key. Am I missing something? I tried to change the repository, but it's simply not working.

Yes, I tried that, but after installing three or four programs, I don't see any of them in the menu!!!

It's a problem on our end. See this post:

http://blog.mandriva.com/2007/10/10/public-service-announcement-nokey-errors-with-2008/

it explains the whole thing. I will be posting it to these forums soon. It *is* safe to ignore the warning and proceed with the package installation, until you can get the problem resolved correctly as detailed in the post.
