As Sean stated, there is a bug with the X version that is included on
the installation disk. I have an 815 card that looked like your example
when I tried a pre-FC3 beta. Installing in text mode or passing a
resolution of 800 x 600 to the installer might get you through the
install process. After updating to the newer version of X, you should be
alright. You might need to edit your xorg.conf and add Option "NoAccel"
to get X working until you get the upgraded server. See the example in
the below bug report. The newer X worked in my tests without adding any
options to xorg.conf and even worked with DRI at a higher resolution
settings. Pros and cons might be added to this report or the xorg-x11
bug created and referenced in the below bug report.
