Don't bother with RedHat if you want KDE -- use Mandrake

I just downloaded and installed 9.1 and it is really good, I'm surprised.  KDE 3.1 is very nice, i haven't run into any bugs (although one config tool in the KDE menu was named the wrong thing) and the nvidia drivers work perfectly.  If you don't know, here's some of the software mdk 9.1 comes with:

XFree 4.3
Kernel 2.4.21
KDE 3.1
Gnome 2.2

I'd suggest anyone wanting a good free desktop linux should get this.

Im glad that other people can see that mandrake is finally doing a good job. Im just curious, I know that you used to use windows XP, did you try out mandrake's non destructive NTFS partition resizing?

I have no idea since I deleted XP some time ago.

preacher:
Good for you deleting XP, oh well though, I was more curious if it worked correctly. I also noticed that winmodem users can get drivers for their modems included with the distro if they buy the power pack. I dont know if this is a good deal, since you can find a lot of winmodem drivers all over the internet, but if you dont feel like spending weeks looking this is a good deal. Finally a distro ships with Nvidia video drivers included. It took so long.

here's a screenshot if you're interested:
