    Phoronix: Fedora 13 Alpha Pushed Back By A Week

    Red Hat's Fedora lives on the bleeding edge of Linux development with many new features going into each release. While this is exciting for Linux enthusiasts and those looking to see the course Linux is on before most of this work ends up in other distributions, postponed releases have become a common occurrence for this free software project...

    Once released, Fedora 13 should be quite interesting with open-source NVIDIA 3D graphics support via the Nouveau OpenGL driver in Gallium3D
    What about Radeon? Will it be using Gallium3D?

      With the experimental package I guess yes.

      But do you want it by default? Because currently:
      1) It is slower than classic Mesa
      2) State trackers are far from a collective desirable state

      -KMS is now alive and kicking (ass)
      -r300 Gallium is now in good shape
      -Only the state trackers are still a case of GLHF

      Just my 2 cents, ofcourse

        What kernel will Fedora 13 use? I assume 2.6.33 but I haven't seen anything to confirm this.
