Now I have.  And it seems awfully complex for something that should just 
work.

Also printed for reference since I have no sound on the mandriva 2010 64 bit 
install I shall use as the canary's equ, and may switch to as this F10 has 
been EOL'd.

Mint 8 was the other candidate, but trying to use the same /home partition 
has led to many gotchas from the lack of a common base numbering system for 
the users between them.  But one thing was nice on Mint 8 (64 bit), fglxr 
installed without a single hiccup, and made X about 10x faster, without the 
display trash that radeonhd leaves behind all too often when running this 
F10.

It will take a while to absorb and implement this.

Thank you very much.
