F10 shipped a purely userspace set up. Neither had it enabled as the

F11 uses nouveau here. It is actually a pain to get 'nv' going as an
alternate -- bugs have been filed. Makes kernel dev more difficult for
me. I was actually told, by Fedora people, that I should be hacking on
the Fedora (rpm-based) kernel, rather than a 100% upstream kernel like I
have been hacking/booting for the past decade, as a result of this setup
(needing nouveau kernel support, thus needing Fedora rather than
upstream kernel).
