  Mandriva Linux - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mandriva Linux (formerly Mandrakelinux or Mandrake Linux, and an acquisition of Conectiva and Lycoris) is a GNU/Linux distribution created by Mandriva, SA (formerly Mandrakesoft, SA).
Mandriva Linux is also notable for compiling its packages with optimizations for Pentium and AMD64-class and more advanced processors which are incompatible with older CPU versions such as 386 and 486.
Mandriva Linux is geared to use KDE or GNOME as the standard desktops, but includes others such as IceWM, Blackbox, Window Maker and Twm.

 Encyclopedia: Comparison of Linux distributions   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
Before the first Linux distributions, a would-be Linux user was required to be something of a Unix expert, not only knowing what libraries and executables were needed to successfully get the system to boot and run, but also important details concerning configuration and placement of files in the system.
Among their proposed standards are the Linux Standard Base, which defines a common ABI and packaging system for GNU/Linux, and the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard which recommends a standard filenaming chart, notably the basic directory names found on the root of the tree of any Linux filesystem.
Linux and other free software projects have been frequently criticized for not going far enough in terms of ensuring usability, and Linux has been generally considered more difficult to use than Windows or the Macintosh, although it is steadily improving.

 :: Reviews : First Look at a Distro Changed: Mandriva LE 2005
If there is indeed a desktop Linux market, Mandrake Linux was one of the founding fathers, and up until their recent purchase of Conectiva Linux (and subsequent name change to Mandriva), they've reigned right along side other big-name contenders such as Novell/SUSE, Red Hat, Linspire, and Xandros...
Mandriva cites “maturity” as the reason for sticking with the later version of KDE and to be honest, it serves the purpose it was intended to just fine so I see no reason to complain for lack of the latest desktop.
I consider the Mandriva installer to be one of the “big three”, which is comprised of Red Hat's Anaconda, SUSE's YaST, and the Mandriva installer.
