There is no clean support for 2.6.29 yet in catalyst.
So I wonder what kind of help you want to offer !?
I figured something along the lines of rewriting the driver from scratch
to use the new quantum-pipelining infrastructure to increase the card's
speed by a factor of 10 while halving its power usage, and I was
planning on writing it using Fortran (with some COBOL where necessary).

No, what I really meant was help in getting 9.7 into F10, I definitely
don't have the kernel-foo to fix catalyst for the newer kernels.
Now that's true that 9.7 could be updated in F-10 for 2.6.27.
But aren't we waiting for 9.8 ?
Anyway, If you want to give a hand for catalyst in rpmfusion the
better would be to submit an update bugreport having the spec already
updated for lastest version...
Ok, sounds good. Let me see what I can do.
Now keeping 9.5 can also be justified, that will be up to firewing1
to say...
Thanks,
Jonathan
