While good, it's still not as good as having proper open-source drivers supported by the manufacturer as well as the community. The Noveau driver project faces the same unfortunate situation with Nvidia as the OpenOffice folks do when reverse-engineering the MS doc format: there is nothing stopping Nvidia from making a few "improvements" that will break the Noveau drivers more-or-less at will. So yes, Noveau is a great project with substantial promise. But it's still not as "good" as the current state of affairs is with regard Intel video chipsets, and the apparently forthcoming situation with ATI. -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Melville Sask ~ http://www.melvilletheatre.com -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
