anytime soon. As you may have read elsewhere on this this, FC6 is
deeply frozen and will be released in a few days, so we can't fix mga
this late in the game. Other than that, you're right, it will be
annoying for mga users and we will likely see a lot of bugs for this.
The fixed driver will be available as an fc6 update when fc6 is
available, all you need to do is to say 'yum update' and run
system-config-display as you mention.
Thanks for the catch on the reference to the extras location. I knew he
was referring to updates since it is part of core. I'm too used to
referring to Extras to get programs and didn't realize I referred to
extras instead of updates.
.
linux xdriver=vesa
yum update to pull in the new driver.
run system-config-display or X -configure after the updates are applied
and we're off.
Providing the fix quickly after the release should stifle some of the
reports. For users that do not monitor the list, there probably will be
tons of reports. (if printed to paper)

cheers
