Renaming libdri.so to libdri_broken.so at least got me up and running.

I don't know why X does not start for you. I hoped that it was 
mistakenly thrown in updates-testing and was for rawhide. It was not though.

All on one line below to test. Then startx from runlevel 3. You might 
need to go back to the last Fedora 8 or grab the previously sticking 
driver to test.
  mv /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libdri.so 
/usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libdri_broken.so
