I tried the latest one (released yesterday).

TEST-1, 2

System: AMD dual core Athlon ATI690G
RAM: 4 GB (Dual Channel DDR2)
Graphics: Radeon X1200 (integrated) &  Card Radeon 2400
Hard Disk: SATA Seagate   AHCI

Extra Boot Time Kernel Parameters: NONE

Messages:
Did see things like
don't' know how to make device "loop2"
don't' know how to make device "loop3"

Otherwise starts lots of  services by default...ALL "[OK]"


ISSUES:

1. Does not load the correct driver module (radeon) for the IG card
and also the other one.
2. Monitor resolution (Philips 17inch) not correctly detected ...
apparently due to Belkins KVM

resolution was 640x..?
3. kde seems to freeze after a minute or so. Cannot be rectified by
restarting the x-server. Opening a terminal (from keyboard) results in
a black screen

- ---------------
TEST-3

Boot to run level 3
modprobe radeon
Startx
SAME ISSUES

Checked lsmod, dmesg ... not clear
(will follow up)
- ------------------------


Fedora-9 is fine on the same system (no boot time kernel parameters
required) with 3D acceleration etc...had to set up all the graphics
myself though.


Best
