~ My main gripe is that nvidia support seems to have vanished.
I don't think so. nvidia cards are supported by the free (xorg) nv driver, just as in XF86 before. The driver will get installed by anaconda it it detects a nvidia adapter. Works fine here with x86_64.
The nv driver is not a DRM driver. Does nVidia still have drivers available from their website?
The free driver is missing some (or better: a lot of) features which are supported by the binary-only nvidia driver. This driver currently doesn't work in core 2 due to a kernel issue (4gb problem, i386 only), not due to a xorg problem. For details you should search the archiv.
Last time I looked (~1 year ago) nVidia made their driver open source. You could even compiled it yourself on your computer. Their license probably restricts redistribution.
