I think I might have stumbled onto something here for the problem with
the intel video drivers and openGL. Currently I am running FC3 T3
updated the kernel to 624 and the latest Xorg-X11 files. I was getting a
lot of garbled pixels and the screen wouldn't refresh its self, so I did
a lot of searching and I found something on the Xine web site referring
to a problem with blue screens and other stuff with the Xine player. I
followed their instructions and it fixed most of the problems I am
having with the Intel I8xx video. This is what I did;

added the following to  Section "Device" in xorg.config
Option      "XaaNoOffscreenPixmaps" 

I am still having issues but it is bearable for now.

Funny thing everything was running good until I updated to kernel 624
and the latest xorg files. Go figure.
