mesa-6.4.2-6.FC5.3 has been pushed for fc5, which should resolve this issue. If these problems are still present in this version, then please make note of it in this bug report.

This is a duplicate of bug #190245. Don't reopen it. CC yourself on the other bug that is tracking the issue. The reason the problem still exists is that both mesa _and_ the X server have to be rebuilt and released. We rebuilt and released mesa, however the X server has been slightly delayed due to unexpected problems that have arisen. The X server will be released shortly to complete the fix for this problem, and bug #190245 will be updated at that time as well. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 190245 ***
