Mandriva
Description
Mandriva Linux (formerly Mandrakelinux or Mandrake Linux) is a Linux distribution created by Mandriva (formerly Mandrakesoft). The first release was based on Red Hat Linux (version 5.1) and KDE (version 1.0) in July 1998. It has since diverged from Red Hat and has included a number of original tools mostly to ease system configuration. Mandriva Linux (at the time named Mandrake Linux) was originated by Gaƫl Duval, who was also a co-founder of Mandrakesoft and fired from the company in 2006.
