Works perfectly well, it is automatically detected and installed with the right packages during both system installation and while running Mandriva normally. No configuration is required (excluding network configuration such as WEP and stuff).

Note : Configuration and installing packages are however required under Mandriva FREE to run this material since it requires madwifi proprietary driver and application, which is not present in the Free edition.
