If the booting stuff is slow, its not an X problem... unless I suppose you 
were running the rhgb (RedHat Graphical Boot) stuff, which is in X.

If you want to debug it you should find out about that first.... remove the 
rhgb from the kernel commandline in /boot/grub/grub.conf, edit /etc/inittab 
temporarily with the line

id:5:initdefault:

changed to 

id:3:initdefault:

That will be major guidence where your problems are coming from if you still 
have the disease without X in the picture at all.  Or conversely if you run 
fine without X, your problem is at least identified as an X problem.  In this 
case I would try to run with "vesa" as the video driver and look at removing 
any extra input device stuff.

I would also definitely run the latest FC2 test1 2.6 kernel -- in fact I am 
running it right now myself.

I would also be looking at /var/log/messages with a critical and hawklike 
eye :-)

Well, you found somebody is running that mobo without problems.  So your next 
move is to decide if you want to go on with trying to find out what the issue 
is, or if you just want to continue to be aggressively negative.
