Thanks for the text file, I'll read through it when I'm more awake. I
noticed you have various srpm links, thought I'd point you to koji
also, because it's sort of a 'one stop shopping' for Fedora rpm's
(x86_64, i686 and srpm's) for different packages:
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/

Basically, I didn't want to spend a lot of time installing or building
things that may not survive a changeover to CentOS, given the pile of
other stuff I also have to do... and I have a working VLC on Fedora so
if I need to watch a dvd on the computer that's where I'll go. Movie
Player on RHEL6 beta doesn't work for dvd's, as I guess you know. 

If you have any ideas on the hibernate issue, I'd be happy to hear them!
