I just tried dora here and am not seeing any problems on my hardware -
video works fine and is accelerated - this was using 'gst-launch
playbin2 file:///xxx.mp4'.

I didn't see any garbage on the serial line either, and was able to
reboot without any problems with ethernet cable plugged in.

For the accelerated video, one thing to check would be that you have
'commercial' in your LICENSE_FLAGS_WHITELIST.  For the other things, I
don't know, but I think there's more than one variant of the fri2
hardware - I'll have to let Darren or someone who knows more about the
fri2 hardware chime in..
