The 411 version kernel might not work at all for GUI. There is supposedModifying the GRUB bootup line to get rid of "rhgb" and substituting "3" (don't know if this is necessary?), gives me a (real fast!) text bootup. Logging into a regular user and then typing startx -- -nolisten tcp pops me into X/KDE no problem; but ONLY if the "load dri" is commented out. If it is present, then it locks up just like the graphical boot.
I am going to try the .411 kernel from testing/arjan tonight and see if
this fixes anything... Something weird with how the X server is called
from the boot sequence?
to be a later version out, with the correction of the introduced bug. I
believe the next kernel number is 419.
Oh boy, it sure didn't... much much worse... can't get into X at all now... X server bails.
The kernel I see in arjan is now 414... Does this have a fix?

http://freedesktop.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=707 is the bug report I
have added to it. Add more useful data to it if you have it. I would
love to see this fixed.
If you want to check the fedora-test-list archives, it was a recent discussion. It should be easy to find the discussion, even without a search.
