Most of my machines run Centos, where the interface doesn't change every
week.

My only recent ones have been the kernels that wouldn't boot on IBM MPT
scsi controllers. I gave up on fedora on any machine with nvidia or
firewire long ago.
Is that "IBM MPT scsi controllers" only? That does sound like a possible
bug. Did you write a ticket on that?
Strange. Which version (release) of Fedora? Core 6? Fedora 7? I ask
because I have an Nvidia graphics card and the firewire on my machine.
I was using Nvidia graphics cards when I first tried Linux at RedHat v5.2.
I think it was v5.2. It came with a "Linux for Dummies" book. I built my
current machine around the time of Fedora 7. I, personally, do not have
anything firewire but my son's camcorder works when attached. It did in
Fedora 7 and still does in Fedora 8.
