“Fedora releases always include the latest and greatest
features on the X.Org front and Fedora 10 is no different. Fedora 9
was the first distribution shipping with experimental kernel-based
mode-setting support and this support is further stabilized in
Cambridge. At the beginning of the month we shared The State of
Kernel Mode-Setting. In that article we shared where kernel
mode-setting was at along with provided a few videos of kernel
mode-setting in action on the Fedora 10 Beta. Officially, kernel
mode-setting (KMS) has yet to enter the mainline Linux kernel and
it will not be until at least Linux 2.6.29 when this
happens.”
