Install Microsoft core TrueType fonts in Mandriva Linux
The default fonts packaged with Linux are definitely passable; however, Microsoft has some freely available TrueType fonts that make Linux look even better. These fonts technically aren't redistributable, which is why most Linux vendors do not provide them out of the box. But, these fonts are available for personal use;...
