F10 -> F11 X server problem with /dev/fb0

I just upgraded an x86_64 Fedora 10 system to Fedora 11. Now when I run
startx I get the following complaint.
(EE) open /dev/fb0: No such file or directory
Then the screen output says...
Fatal server error:
Detected GPU lockup
My Fedora 10 system was using the Fedora Xvfb package to perform offline
processing. I stopped that server, but I'm still getting the error.
$ lspci
...
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV44
[GeForce 6200 LE] (rev a1)
...
I'm wondering how to go about fixing this. I know this probably isn't
enough to "go on", but just ask, and I'll provide more information.
