Just please reword it so that it doesn't like Fedora's fault.  
Something along the lines:

    Third party developers have not managed to port their 
    graphical drivers (nvidia and fglrx are the most prominent) 
    to the new Xorg API shipped in the current Fedora release 
    yet. If your use of the computer depends on these drivers, 
    then you are strongly advised either not to upgrade Fedora 
    9 yet, exclude xorg\* packages from upgrade (when using yum
    upgrade), or downgrade your xorg\* packages back to those in 
    Fedora 8 after installation (when using upgrade from DVD).

What about this?
