It seems that the most recent series of 2.6.30.5 kernels don't detect
some graphics cards, notably the Radeon X700 mobile:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=518615
Is anyone else seeing this, or is my husband's unfortunate laptop alone? :)

Please send this feedback to Bodhi also:
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/F11/FEDORA-2009-8796
in fact Bodhi rather than Bugzilla is the correct place to send reports
for -testing packages, but thanks very much for providing the feedback!

Actually, the best thing all around is to file a bug for the problem and then
put that bug number in a negative karma comment in bodhi. Mostly because
this:
"kernel can't see graphics card. See bug #123456 for details and logs"
is much better than:
"kernel can't see graphics card. I CAN'T HAZ MY INTERTUBEZ!"
in bodhi. Bodhi is not a very good back-and-forth communication mechanism
at all.
