Help Mandriva build a hardware compatibility database
Mandriva has put in place a community hardware compatibility database which aims to help Linux users find out about the compatibility of their hardware, and follow the improvement of support. If you would like to take part, you can send us the list of hardware in your system and rate its performance under Linux. Other users can then use this information. The information is not linked to your personal information in any way, guaranteeing your privacy. It's quick and easy to contribute.
