Mandriva
Linux(原先的Mandrakelinux)创建于1998年,其宗旨是让Linux对所有人都更易于使用。当时Linux作为操作系统已经以强大和
稳定而著称,但它要求人们有很强的专业知识,并涉及大量的命令行操作。MandrakeSoft认为这是一个将最好的图形桌面环境及其自己的图形界面配置
工具集成到Linux中的机会,并且很快就因其树立了易用性和功能性的标准而著称。依靠这种创新的方法,Mandriva
Linux通过一种易于使用并令人愉快的环境,向个人和企业用户提供了Linux所有的强大功能和稳定性。每天都有成千上万的新用户在初识Linux并发
现它可以完全替代他们之前所使用的操作系统。无论是作为服务器还是工作站,Linux都用不着去妒嫉任何其他更广为采用的操作系统了。 Adam Williamson has announced that the second and final release candidate of Mandriva Linux 2008 is ready for testing: "Mandriva Linux 2008 RC2 'Kepler' was released today. New features since the release of RC1 include the final release of GNOME 2.20, the inclusion of the new 8.41.7 version of ATI's proprietary driver in the non-free repository to support Radeon HD cards, significant kernel updates that improve support for certain ATA controllers and many audio chipsets, some new features in the urpmi and rpmdrake package management tools, and over 500 bug fixes since RC1."
