Will I run into any problems if I install the the Rawhide XFree 4.2 rpms under 7.2? I'm thinking about purchasing a Radeon 8500; although I realize that it will not have any 3D support for now. I guess 2D will do for now.
Thanks,

serious stability issues. Yes, I can be blunt, but if you have to ask if

Hi,
I installed the XFree 4.2 rpms under 7.2 a few weeks ago and it has

so you can't install it afterwards. Your mileage may vary.
