The sleep error has been reported and is widely known. It was fixed in 
kernel.org release 2.6.17.7. Fedora kernel developers are waiting for 
2.6.17.8 to be released, reportedly "very soon"...because 2.6.17 has bad 
memory leaks in addition to numerous bugs that will be fixed in 2.6.17.8.
I am restless myself for this new kernel, but I'm just gonna have to 
patiently wait...
