I upgraded my Mageia 4 to Cauldron (development branch, currently the same as Mageia 5b3) a few weeks ago, and I'm very happy with it =)


An amazing distribution in general, and for GNU/linux beginners in particular ;)

Estoy a punto de instalar junto a Mageia openSUSE. Curiosamente jamás he probado esa distribución.

What's so special about mageia? I looked at their site, but couldn't figure out what makes them different or what's their speciality/goal etc.

Well, I don't know if "so special" is the term here. What makes it so great, IMHO, is that it's oriented to novice users, while still being great for advanced users.


It has some pretty great features for novices (some as part of its Mandrake/Mandriva legacy, some new), and it was easy to use with point-and-click (well, as Mandriva) way before Ubuntu came along claiming to be "for humans". Sadly, it never got as much attention from the media...
