Linux distributor Mandriva facing bankruptcy?

[thewayne]

This is sad. In my brief experiments with Linux, Mandriva was one of the better ones for recognizing my particular combinations of hardware and working well. They had a shareholders meeting in early December and put forth some plans for shoring up the finances, but the majority shareholders did not approve.

It is possible that something might yet happen that will save them, but I would not hold my breath.
