Latest Fedora Core To Use?

[Patrick Baggett <baggett.patrick@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello all,

I've seen that the most recent version of Solaris (Express) has removed 
support for older SPARC machines, and Oracle's takeover has made 
Solaris/SPARC fairly dismal since no patches are being offered for free 
anymore and disallowed commercial use without a support contract. I 
guess it is time to ditch Solaris.
     I'd like to know what the latest version of Fedora Core I should be 
using. From the "Secondary Architectures/SPARC" wiki page 
(http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/SPARC) it looks like it is 
"12-Beta". Is this correct?

My main goal is to hack on the nouveau project to see if I can get a 
secondary PCI-based nvidia card to function with hardware accelerated 
OpenGL. Success on big-endian PPC has made me believe it is quite 
possible. I need fairly recent kernel/Xorg/DRM/DRI set to do this, so 
having recent tools/distribution is very helpful.

Thanks,

Patrick
