DVD works fine in my Dell 8000, what BIOS revision do you have? If I recall properly, I have version A10, and I am assuming that Dell has fixed this issue, possibly without knowing it ;) I am also now able to suspend my laptop after using the builtin mini-pci nic (using the non-miibus code), and I do not have those nasty SCB timeouts that so many have described.
