Apart from a nifty new look, Mandrake has also upped the support for numerous hardware devices. Hot-plug support, similar to plug-n-play, allows you to plug in new hardware and have it automatically recognized and configured while the system is running. ACPI support for better power management with laptops. Support for a number of WiFi devices. Additional drivers for NVIDIA-based and ATI video cards (available in Mandrakelinux packs and Mandrakeclub ISO images), and additional drivers for several brands of Winmodems.
