<para>The <emphasis>Nonfree</emphasis> repository includes packages
that are free-of-charge, i.e. Mageia may redistribute them, but they
contain closed-source software (hence the name - Nonfree). For example
this repository includes nVidia and ATI graphics card proprietary
drivers, firmware for various WiFi cards, etc.</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>The <emphasis>Tainted</emphasis> repository includes packages
released under a free license. The main criteria for placing packages in
this repository is that they may infringe patents and copyright laws
in some countries, e.g. Multimedia codecs needed to play various
audio/video files; packages needed to play commercial video DVD,
etc.</para>
