Hi,
what is the status of the open source drivers in Fedora 16 with regards to 
the Radeon 69xx Northern Island cards? I booted the alpha live cd on a 
system equipped with a 6950 card and got dumped into fallback mode and with 
the recent ABI change the Catalyst driver is not going to work either so 
I'm wondering what is needed to make Fedora 16 work on that card without 
the fallback mode?

Regards,
   Dennis
