Well, there is the nouveau driver. Not sure how stable or fast that is at this point, though.
I can say that it is "useless", just like you say about the "Omega Live CD" because it does not have KDE :(, I would beg to differ because it is just a yum install "KDE Desktop Environment" away :)
I actually have more to back me up:

I have a quad core machine, and if I want to play a DVD, I get a message that my computer is too slow to play it :(, how sad don't you think?
xine and mplayer give me the same bull :(,
I tried Xorg -configure and it gave me back nouveau driver, I type startx and it fails to start, have to reboot to get message above. I guess I do have to try to get the nvidia drivers as much as I would normally hate to do so :(
