I don't want to start a Mine is better than yours thing here but Mandrake 8.2 fully suports Nvidia stuff from TNT 2 right through to the GF 4 cards, I have just installed mdk on eight P4 machines with varying hardware (one with GF 3) only minor problems nothing a half arsed Linux geek couldn't fix. (the sis/asus stuff was the biggest pain) I had to compile a new kernel for that one but Mandrake did install and work but I had no sound until I patched the kernel.
