mesa isn't going to affect basic console output. The key thing there is
mostly the code that's in the kernel, certainly not mesa and probably
not the DDX. F21 has kernel 3.17.

You could try a Rawhide nightly live (yes, these are being built still,
you can find 'em in Koji) and see if it works there, as that has kernel
3.18. Or just file a bug upstream with the usual information, if you can
manage to get the logs out 'flying blind' (or by enabling ssh or
something).
