Million thanks Nathan !!

What a silly boy I am !
I was persuaded that there was a message indicating a "soft" quota exceed.
Doing the tests of copying a file in user "userx" was in fact a wrong test.

So, XFS quotas works great with linux Mandrake 9.2 now !
thanks a lot SGI mans.
Sorry for disturbing this ML for this stupid question.

bye

PS: I can go now to see if it works with SAMBA 3.0.x !
