Perhaps during the installation we should explain up-front that 
Linux-Mandrake wishes to only provide free software for reasons of (insert 
FSF advocacy here).  Then, to be helpful, we could suggest links to sites 
that contain various popular non-free packages (nvidia rpms anyone?).

If the advocacy bit was done right, it could explain to users early on 
about the beneifts and importance of free software, and tell them why 
exactly that program foo is missing from a default install.
