Hey guys, I had it to, solved it (or more a temporary solution): I
went back to the original xorg files from the installdvd: I checked in
/var/cache/yum/updates-released/packages which xorg-packages I had and
copied the corresponding ones to a folder from the dvd and installed
them with rpm -Uvh --oldpackage *.rpm
X then happely works again!

Just remeber that the libvgawh.a thing exsists in that version of xorg!

And now I'm waiting for a new update of xorg!

Hope this helps,

Bart
