I'm the person experiencing problems on Fedora 15 - I think it's related to
this problem.  Only if I include NoModeSet in the kernel parameters will GNOME3
start. 90% of the time only the background appears (no panel, no activities)
and then it hangs.  Very occassionally will Gnome4 start, but it soon hangs.

KDE4 will start OK without NoModeSet, this is where the following attachments
are from.
  Xorg.0.log-KDE4
  lspci-vv.txt
  lsmod.txt
  glxgears.txt
  glxinfo.txt

Note that under KDE4:
  "glxgears" just gives a black window, without any gears!
  "vblank_mode=0 glxgears" gives the correct output with approx 62-80fps.

==============
p.s. I started to have problems with X hanging completely (in KDE4 or GNOME2)
on Fedora 14. X completely locks up, The display no longer updates, but does
not become corrupted, but all inputs are blocked.  Only the cursor moves.  The
laptop fan comes on 100% and I can only do reboot via the power button to get
things moving again.   I am still experiencing these problems with Fedora 15 -
setting NoModeSet does not stop this problem occuring.
