I’ve upgraded four systems to Fedora 9 in the past couple of weeks. For those that have NVidia cards, it was a bumpy ride until NVidia released a [new driver](http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_173.08.html). To install it as a pre-built RPM package, see [this blog post](http://nareshv.blogspot.com/2008/04/fedora-9-rawhide-and-latest-nvidia-179.html).
For the system that runs VMWare Server, it was necessary to [upgrade to version 1.0.6](http://www.howtoforge.com/vmware-server-installation-on-a-fedora9-desktop), which supports the 2.6.25 kernel shipped with Fedora 9.
