Apologies if this is a silly question, but which Rawhide package
contains xbacklight? I just did a yum search and it came up blank. I
just compiled it by hand on F8 and it works fine.

Like several others on this thread, the brightness controls do nothing
on F8, and I've been getting barely three hours with the extended
7-cell battery on a 14" 1280x800 with Intel graphics -- going to jump
to F9 alpha once that comes out.

My suspend problems are almost identical to Matthew Saltzman's; I'd
roll my own kernel if I have the time to experiment with different
settings.
