OK, I realize this isn't the right site, but I thought it might be worth a stab. I am testing Fedora 6, and absolutely love it. I've never been much of a gnome fan, but Fedora is onto something. I am just having issues with the ATI drivers so I can play my games through Cedega (which is already installed and ready to go). I downloaded the drivers from the ATI site (the 3rd party repo ones were no good) and built them into RPMs. These I then installed, edited my xorg.conf properly (I believe) and now I get nothing but mesa inderect, no direct rendering. This is the newest 8.33.6 ATI build. This is my xorg.conf:
