I agree, but unfortunately I need some tools that aren't really available via the Fedora (or are available as previous versions). Also for some of the tools, when I report bugs or submit patches the maintainers would like the default (not distribution) package installed. I guess it's time to put this system under version control. As an aside, the latest NVidia driver (260.19.21) has fixed some of the rendering problems (not the ghosting for OpenOffice Calc plot symbols though). Unfortunately there's a huge regression in GL performance. Right now a 7600 GS card performs about the same as a 5600 LE card. In short, it's an NVidia problem and I'm contributing to a few threads there. Thanks for the comments everyone. The font rendering is about cleaned up, and I'll live with the GL performance problem until NVidia gets the driver fixed. . . . . just my two cents. /mde/ -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
