So? What happened? What led you to conclude that this laptop's video was fully supported? Now, I do see that one video option listed on Dell's web site, for your laptop -- that's one out of four options -- is an Intel 950 chipset. According to http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/Intel?action=highlight&value=CategoryHardware, this chipset appears to be supported by Mesa (by the i945 driver). Although you'd still need to verify if the version of Mesa shipped in Fedora includes the i950 support, that's probably what happened. Somebody had this laptop with the i950 chipset option, and told you that they had working 3D acceleration, but neglected to mention that you have to order this option.
