There are two ways of installing graphic drivers on Fedora Core. The first way is to take precompiled packets from the rpm-repository livna.org. The second way is to use the pacakges provided by ati to install the drivers.
The difference is that livna.org is a lot easier for beginners and newbies, and provides only packages when they are working without problems. The configuration is done automatically with livna.org packages, too.
