Finally did a fresh install of RC3 using specialized storage devices
to avoid the previously reported problems. Used Ubuntu recovery/grub
to fix the boot loader.
Installed with the default video driver on a Geforce 460SE.
Still won't run Genome 3. Wether or not one agrees with
Linus's characterization of Gnome 3, the fallback mode is
unarguably brain damaged.
I downloaded rpmfusion and its Nvidia helper. Unfortunately
this resulted in a system that wedged during loading.
If Fedora is going to depend on a GUI that is downright dreadful
without 3d acceleration, it needs an Ubuntu style routine that
checks for Nvidia or ATI cards and offers to make it Just Work.
