I'm new to Linux and FC3, and had a similar problem installing FC3 with an
i810 card. In my case, the graphical install partially refreshed, and
similarly once the install was complete kde or gnome or xfce(sic?) (I tried
em all before getting anywhere) would partially refresh. I managed to
install just fine with the 'linux nofb' option (graphical anaconda then
worked), and then, (although I bet this maybe wasn't the best thing to do),
I ran 'yum update' and just updated everything...when I woke up the next
morning, I rebooted and bam! Everything was pretty.

I looked around and understand this is a problem with an older version of
xorg or something? There's a bugzilla report:

Hope this is at all helpful.

PS: If this showed up twice I apologize, I'm still figuring out the mailing
