HelixPlayer and snd-atiixp

It would seem that the stable builds of Helix and RealPlayer both have problems with the ALSA snd-atiixp driver - the sound would play for a second, stutter and skip, play again, stutter again and so on. The good news is that the daily builds fix this - but for some reason when I play back a Theora video there the colors become messed up. So the question is: is Fedora Core 5 planned to ship with Helix 1.0 or the next stable version? If the former, could whatever changes have been done in the development version to fix the sound problem be backported? Thanks, - Michel
