I am running Rawhide myself. Have for several years. When Rawhide transforms
to a release I reset it and carry on with Rawhide.

This did not change. It works the same as in the example. In Rawhide x86 and
Rawhide x86_64. I does also depend on if your video card is compatable. Some
are. Some are not.

Good luck.
