This is also very kind of them, but still it doesn't solve the X-Server
issue if one's decided no to use the YUM repository. I can imagine there
are quite few of them, especially those who are into games; Some of them
might be 'n00bz', I presume.

Of course it will, but if one installs the manual driver then at least
the install routine itself pops up with the info about the necessity of
recompiling the driver in case of a kernel-update. Thus one's got
prepared for that. However I've found there no info regarding the X-Server.

So the X-Server issue was new, at least to me. Such I can imagine that
some unexperienced users might got into trouble and that fact should IMO
be anticipated by update builders/devs.
