Successfully installed rawhide today.  Had to radeon.modeset=0 (Radeon 
QD 7200 r100) and xdriver=vesa for the installer to work.  Once 
installed, can go back to the ati driver only needing the 
radeon.modeset=0 for operation.

gnome-applets(gswitchit) workspace-switcher "preferences" are broken. 
Trying to do 9 desktops in 3 rows pulls up a preferences dialog with 
zero's in the boxes and unable to change them in any way.

Yumex hangs with a detected corrupted doubly-linked list from glibc. The 
message is labeled as coming from Yum, so it may be an error in the 
repodata for 20090907 rawhide.  Smart-gui also hangs for a long time.

Unable to install kde after the fact due to a dependency loop of some kind.

No bugzilla at this time.
