I would guess it's a function of being popular among normal 
(non-kernel-compiling ;) ) users, combined with not having anything of the 
stature of Planet CCRMA available currently.  (Thac's RPM's are a start, but 
there are weird issues with a few of the RPM's and most people don't actually 
know about it so there's a lot of reinventing the wheel going on.)  

Meanwhile, Mandrake's never been too good at turning on things like MIDI 
support or ALSA by default.  I think I'm using OSS/Free here in 9.0 for 
example.  It sounds like 9.1 may have finally made that right.
