Terry's responses to this are reasonable and bugs are filed for these.
Please be sure to look at
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/showdependencytree.cgi?id=FedoraOnXO before filing/reporting problems to help reduce duplicates[1]

Almost certainly. 433 mhz isn't a lot for the real time image
manipulation that cheese is doing :)

We should be getting battery status as of yesterday's rawhide[2] so
hopefully this should be a little better. We still won't, and at this
point aren't targeting for F10, have suspend support for handling that

[1] And as a corollary, make sure that bugs you file are set to block
the FedoraOnXO bug
[2] Next "official" image set will be the Preview release. But you can
always build your own images with livecd-creator against rawhide for
those that want to be on the edgier edge
