What kind of inputs are you using? PS/2 Keyboard and mouse or USB? I'm
using USB devices on an i915 (using i810 driver) with up to date rawhide
and have seen none of the problems you are seeing (gnome with compiz).
Perhaps you got a bad upgrade, I had this with nautilus a couple of
weeks ago. Maybe a 'yum clean all' and then a 'yum update' will fix your
problems. Also, do you get these problems in other environments like
XFCE or KDE?

If you use compiz on gnome, try sunflower
