KDE 3.2 (beta) also.  And then there's all the SELinux stuff (although
that's disabled by default in test1).

There are a lot of new bits there...  It's not surprising that people
are going to have problems.  That's why I (think I) suggested to you
the other day that most people might just want to avoid it.

That said, I've been running a rawhide 2.6 kernel for over a month now
on one of my servers...  It has been completely stable.

Oh, and keep in mind that the final release of FC2 is supposed to be
only 2 months from now...
