Has anyone been able to install this from source? I have tried following the instructions on the website but something goes wrong when I run the make command.

Is there a FC5 rpm out there?

Looks like there are Boson rpms in either the Dag and/or Dries rpm repositories.

I tried the fc4 rpm but it doesn't seem to work properly. For instance it says direct rendering is not enabled when glxinfo states that it is.

sorry, that was just a quick search in the middle of the night, just saw something about fc5 rpm and thought I found it.

I downloaded the source and tried compiling. Getting an error about a missing file during make. If I have time I'll look into it.
