Larsen! Sounds like you are doing good research, but do like your video! More power to ya! If I were doing what you are doing my next step would be to see what Knoppix and/or Ubuntu comes up with for drivers and /etc/X11/xorg.conf. I would then use that, if I liked the results, to guide me setting up Fedora. Good Hunting!
