starting to toy with rawhide, no conflicts, some broken things

I am booting a development installation that was sitting dormant since 
FC3 was released. It still had FC2 repositories listed, so it was pretty 
well outdated.

Anyway, I have noticed problems with several features that do not seem 
to work well with rawhide on my test resumes.

The first problem relates to not getting an IP address when booting up 
the system. I have to run dhclient in order to get an IP address from my 
   router that is setup via DHCP. Using neat or system-config-network, I 
get an inactive message for the interface. the NIC is setup to activate 
on boot.

Another problem is related to a usb harddrive that is attached. I have 
to mount the drive as root in order to use it.

Also I have a few ACPI related errors. For the acpi errors, I get the 
below in the system log.

Jan  7 12:36:16 cornette-hdb kernel: ibm_acpi: ec object not found
Jan  7 12:36:18 cornette-hdb acpid: acpid startup succeeded
Jan  7 16:48:38 cornette-hdb kernel: ibm_acpi: ec object not found
Jan  9 01:12:23 cornette-hdb kernel: ibm_acpi: ec object not found

For ACPI, I get the below:

On the positive news, I was able to burn a DVD without any errors.

Also, there were a few avc errors related to cups and dbus.
