I'm running latest rawhide on Thinkpad X60 (Intel 945 graphics, i810
driver) with no problems similar to what you describe (i.e., can't
boot to level 5, but can boot to level 3).

[root at tlondon ~]# rpm -q xorg-x11-drv-i810 gdm gnome-settings-daemon
xorg-x11-drv-i810-2.4.2-8.fc10.i386
gdm-2.24.0-5.fc10.i386
gnome-settings-daemon-2.24.0-2.fc10.i386
[root at tlondon ~]#

Are you running with or without an /etc/X11/xorg.conf? What messages
in /var/log/Xorg.0.log and/or /var/log/messages?

Do you get the gdm splash screen?  The text login screen?
