Bugzilla is not a technical support forum. Please use the Fedora or X.Org mailing lists for technical support assistance. If you can isolate a real bug with the X server or video driver(s), file a bug report in X.Org bugzilla at http://bugs.freedesktop.org in the "xorg" component. As a side note, when filing bugs in bugzilla, file one issue per bug report, as each bug report must track one single specific issue. Setting status to "NOTABUG" - technical support problem...
