Yeah, this lack of hardware acceleration in non-proprietary drivers is what has got me worried. NVIDIA seem to be doing an okay job with their driver (a lot more could be done) and ATI seem to be struggling to produce a driver too. And both of these are non-free and therefor not able to be included with FEDORA. I'd like to add to the wish list for FC5 at this point. If cairo is going to become a part of FC5, then I'd like to see more work put into producing FOSS drivers to support hardware acceleration out of the box. R. PS. This is a big ask for two reasons. Firstly, I don't code (I contribute time in other ways) so I can't really help out here (except with testing), and secondly, I realize that this is a big ask. - R. -- "It's a fine line between denial and faith.
