Perhaps you can also try the severn/rawhide kernel?
I've started from severn (beta 2) and upped to rawhide using 'yum' and
Fn-F3/4 worked with both. Note: this is with APM.
I've tried booting to ACPI with the latest rawhide kernel - but
Fn-F3/4 don't work.
I haven't tried cpudyn - does this require ACPI?
