The DVB drivers load properly for me when cold-booting into an Alpha 5 rescue CD. The driver won't load at all after a restart, although I think that's a hardware issue with my machine, so I consider this bug fixed. -- saa7134-dvb not loaded automatically https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/56801

For now, we don't - bugs are reported no matter what. As the list of bugs build up, we should be able to develop heuristics about what software vs. hardware errors look like. When we start being able to identify hardware errors programatically, we can add a more sophisticated solution that warns

I have a similar experience, also new after upgrading from 7.10 to 8.04. I use the British/Dvorak keyboard layout, but find that the layout is reset to QWERTY after each reboot. Adding or removing an identical keyboard layout (without necessarily changing layouts) fixes this for the current
