I like Fedora, I advocate Fedora, I install it on people's workstations, and talk it up as much as I can. However Nvidia did not jump the gun and ship a prerelease Xorg. I see and agree with the point of not being held hostage by a vendor, and there is no winners here. Only losers and those losers are the Fedora users who depend on the nvidia drivers who will either have to reinstall F8 or go to another distro and provide bad word of mouth for Fedora. - Erich -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
