Loads and stops fine on my HP AMD64 laptop using the i686 kernel.
Haven't tried to overload it yet.
Wireless worked (bc43-fwcutter, not the wl-broadcom kmod) out of the box.
Nvidia akmod failed to build, my rookie research points to either akmod
doesn't 
like <dot>29 version or kernel-rt-devel is missing something that akmod
needs.
Graphics works OK without the Nvidia akmod, just no 3D graphics.

BTW, I hope to demo CCRMA PD and SuperCollider at the Fedora Activity Day 
at the NW LinuxFest    http://linuxfestnorthwest.org/
