FC8 experience

[Heid, Oliver]

Hello all,
FC8 is definitly amazing stuff, congratulations!!
I found some unexpected behaviour (on up2000+). Anybody seen these
issues too?:
1) sysrq-b (emergeny reboot) doesnt work (since at least kernel version
2.6.17). Still, all the other sysrq keys (emergency sync etc.) do work.
2) The 2.6.23 kernels (including the FC8 stock kernel) do not drop back
to SRM console at the end of shutdown, but just say "power off" before
hanging.
3) With 2.6.23 kernels "shutdown -r now" doesnt reboot, but hangs
shortly before dropping back to SRM. Looks like a side effect of issue
2)
4) The (modularized) FC8 xorg MGA driver dropped hw-accelerated xvideo
support, right? xine is really slow under FC8 on my matrox G400, much
slower than under AC2.
