Hi Tim. I was also helping the OP with problems booting Kubuntu, and by coincidence had just had a kernel update on my Kubuntu install, and certainly the new kernel in /boot/grub/menu.lst had replaced "quiet splash", which I'd removed, and didn't show the "acpi=off". Your no doubt correct in the case of Fedora. I know I've a whole bunch of updates that need doing on Fedora 8, including a kernel update, so I'll check that post update. All the best.
