I wouldn't be that pessimistic - the code seems to be already in the
next alsa release, and traditionally there had been alsa releases
every 3-4 months, which means that if tradition continues a new alsa
release is soon to come. The code then also makes it into the new
vanilla kernel and Fedora is very close to the latest kernel, so
Fedora 13 will get the patches.

As to whether ATrpms will fold them into kmdl *before* 1.0.23: It
depends on whether someone goes through the trouble of splitting out
the patches needed for GT200 HDMI or even wishes to maintain an
alsa-git kmdl in bleeding. I wouldn't mind such a package in ATrpms,
but I currently cannot drive such an effort myself. Are there any
takers?
