Turn on fedora-development.repo, then

# yum upgrade Xorg xorg-x11-drv-i810 libdrm

and then turn it back off.  I don't think there's any other packages in
there that would _need_ updating.  If you wanted to play with the new
RANDR hotness as well then you'd also want to upgrade
xorg-x11-server-utils and libXrandr.

Depending how well F7 X works for people I should probably push an
update for FC6 anyway.
