I don't know. X doesn't seem to complain about any error whatsoever, everything appears to be in order from its point of view. I am not sure reinstalling xorg or mesa will do any good. OTOH, you might try to boot a Fedora Live CD, just to be sure that hardware is still ok, run a memtest, etc. In general I hate to suggest a reinstall of the whole OS, but since there is no obvious way to understand the problem you have, maybe a reinstall would be a quick way out of problems. Just be sure to backup all your data. Maybe someone else has a fresh idea what might be going wrong?
