Fedora 13, OSS 3D Drivers
I read on Ars Technica today that the latest release of Fedora included a couple of open-source 3D drivers for Nvidia and ATI. Has anyone tried them? Any reports from the field?

If by 'open source nvidia drivers' they mean noveau, then it isn't really a 3d driver as the noveau wiki says:
But it's getting there, so it won't be long.2-D support is in fairly good shape with EXA acceleration, Xv and Randr12 (dual-head, rotations, etc.).
Any 3-D functionality that might exist is still unsupported. Do not ask for instructions to try it.

That's the same driver that Ubuntu 10.04 uses. It does a good job in 2D

My new blog. It's probably not as good as I think it is.
