Re: F17 heads up: X server git snapshots
Hello, Wow, I read this a little too late. I did an update, using --skip-broken, today and now Xorg is broken. I use the open source ati drivers. The Xorg log indicates a version mismatch between Xorg and the drivers. Is there a way to reverse or fix this?

Get the list of X packages you have installed, download the F16 builds
of same from koji, and downgrade to them. Something like this perhaps:
$ rpm -qa --qf=%{name}\n xorg-x11-\* | xargs -n 1 koji download-build
--latestfrom=f16-updates --arch=$(arch)
$ sudo rpm -Uvh --oldpackage xorg-x11-*$(arch).rpm
Probably there's a way to achieve the same thing that won't end with yum
complaining about the rpmdb being modified behind its back, but meh.

Set up the F16 repos and do 'yum downgrade'.

You should only reset the first part of the revision to 1 if you're changing something that comes *ahead* of it (e.g. going from 2.6.99 to 2.7.0). Your build should have been 2.6.99-4.2009git745fca03a . Anyway, as of my build we're back up to 2.6.99-3, so it should all shake out now.
