The Mandriva install went very fast and had no real issues. Initially installed as a KDE platform, I then shifted over to Gnome. My HP 1012 printer was found and configured with no problems,and was much easier to do than it was in Fedora. VLC is working like a champ for watching DVD’s and Kontact is running happily to handle mail and appointments. So far so good.

Since the install of Mandriva 2010 went so well on the laptop, I’ve now changed over this desktop as well. I had originally thought about keeping the Fedora install, but decided to migrate the data off the drive and remove Fedora entirely. Though Fedora always behaved fairly well, there were some features from Mandriva that I missed, such as the ability to use to data card slot on the front of my PC. Not really a show stopper, but it was a nice feature that flat out didn’t work in Fedora.
