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.
