Well, so expect to see a slick but textual boot process, unless nvidia decides to release a KMS-aware driver (highly doubtful).Quote:

Well, I've got an ATI card but I still get the textual boot. Probably have to wait until they finally get support for the R600 based cards to work.Quote:

Now if they'd only add DEB package integration or something to make universal Linux packages a reality. :/
I doubt completely universal Linux packages will be never work because distros just have too many differences (even taking into account something like the LSB).Quote:

I would be surprised if more than 20% of the packages need all the scripting that an RPM package offers (no idea how DEBs work so I won't comment on them), so that would mean that 80+% of the packages do nothing more than copy files to certain directories. So it should be possible to find a way to flag those packages as being cross-distro. Don't know if that means that all distros could use them directly but at least there could be a common "definition" from which distro-specific packages could be built.

Perhaps, it may be something else?
