Unfortunately, it did not: I let anaconda reinstall the xorg packages and the kernel package but X still locks up immediately. So I did yum remove "*xorg*" Then reinstalled all those packages (and those depending on them) from FC2 with yum, and now it all works well again. My point is that the screwup was not caused by yum, but something is very seriously wrong with xorg-x11 for FC3, that does not work with my Radeon 7000 (or some other hardware).
