    It's been a while since I used Mandrake, but there are two commands you
    may find very useful: "rpm" and "rpmdrake". You can use "man rpm" to
    find out more about rpm.

    RPMDrake specifically allows you to search your Mandrake disks for the
    RPM containing a specific file.

    Rpm itself has some useful tools, like, to find out what rpm provided a
    particular file, do "rpm -qa --whatprovides /path/to/file".

    Hope this helps,
    Ray
