  Sure dnotify will still work, but gamin is compiled with inotify support
by default even in FC3 so as soon as an inotify kernel ils pushed the
inotify back-end will be used (assuming people who updated their kernel
package also updated their gamin package with the final updates).
  I just hope the guinea p^H^H^H^H^H^H^Hbrave people who test inotify
on other distros had actually found the main bugs by last month. I expect
so, an inotify based solution really can't be worse than a dnotify based
one :-)
