Anyone able to get the NVidia quad-port card working with four monitors and
SMP?  Works fine under 7.3, it does not work under the newer versions in an
SMP enabled box.

I repeat "fixed to the best of the ability of the maintainers".  In this
case it looks like it has been reported upstream, so the ball is in their
court.  Fedora project objectives shouldn't be ignored because they cause
inconvenience.
