Some require you to still apply for a visa, some do not. Go to their respective websites! By the way, you do not need a visa to go to France if you have an EEA2 RC endorsed in your passport.

You can find your rights in Directive 2004/38/EC. For travelling have a look into Article 5. There you will find that you can only travel visa-free if you either travel with or later join the EEA spouse. Some countries give more rights but you will have to check individually (Denmark and Cyprus say that you can travel alone on their embassy web pages).
