Re: RedHat Severn (9.0.93 beta)

I installed the RH severn beta1 on my GRX700 using a
spare partition. Install was smooth (no difference to
RH9) and yes it has acpi and it works for me, although
I had to manually load acpi modules.
USB works, everything else seems ok too, the kernel
really looks promising. I will write more after I had
more time to play around with it.
