Same problem on Acer Aspire 5737Z laptop.

jurijs has the same hardware as comment #1. it's possible the original report and comment #1 are different bugs, though. ben, please ask if you'd prefer the report to be split. -- Fedora Bugzappers volunteer triage team https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers
They're all likely the same cause I'd say, later kernels will refuse acceleration on them (slightly better than F11 where nouveau refused to run at all), and X will start in NoAccel mode until it's fixed.
