Another distro that I'm getting on my target is Mandriva...
Can I ask some questions?
Which DM do you use? Gnome or KDE?
How is the availability of software?
Is it easy to install proprietary/restricted packages (as the ones
needed to play MP3/DVDs?).
Thanks in advance.

Yes, I know.
But I think it would be better is there could be a kind of aspect ratio
lock, so if I choose to draw a 400x400 pixels form with a label of font
size set to 10, every user that uses my program would see the same things.
