That's an X bug. File a bug.

Also, an RFE: X should back out and use VESA if the auto-detected, or 
configured, driver fails after 3 attempts instead of attempting to start 
30 times and failing 30 times. A desktop notification should be 
triggered that says "Hey! X failed and you're using a basic video driver 
- please file a bug <button to Abrt>". Worst case, if vesa fails, it 
should dump to a text console and notify the user as such.

These are usability schematics though - X is severely lacking them.
