The xorg.conf for FC6 is a minimalistic version of the file and depends
upon probing the video card instead of specific entries regarding the
display being used in the xorg.conf file. I have seen several instances
of setups being broken because of the lack of display configuration used
in the new style xorg.conf file.
Basically, you need a screen section like below added to the config file
in some cases. The below is only for something to compare as a template.
Your resolutions might be different and probably are.
Also, there is a list where it is more appropriate to ask questions for
the test releases and development when there are no test releases
ongoing. You can subscribe to the list and get input from those running
the test versions and most likely encountered the problem before and
solved it. Attaching to a bug with your symptoms or creating a bug
report if none exist would most likely resolve the problem that you are
getting.
The link to the test list is below.
