Hello,
after update today X won't start any more. The update included some X
relevant packages:
xorg-x11-drv-nouveau-0.0.12-33.20090501gitf69b34a.fc11.x86_64
xorg-x11-server-common-1.6.1-11.fc11.x86_64
xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.6.1-11.fc11.x86_64
kernel-2.6.29.2-126.fc11.x86_64
The problem seems to be the missing nouveau_dri.so file.
The last lines from Xorg.log:
(EE) AIGLX error: dlopen of /usr/lib64/dri/nouveau_dri.so failed
(/usr/lib64/dri/nouveau_dri.so: cannot open shared object file: No
such file or directory)
(EE) AIGLX: reverting to software rendering
(II) AIGLX: Loaded and initialized /usr/lib64/dri/swrast_dri.so
(II) GLX: Initialized DRISWRAST GL provider for screen 0
No, that's a red herring - that message always appears, because we don't
ship a DRI library for nouveau yet. Here's the same messages in my
Xorg.0.log:
(EE) AIGLX error: dlopen of /usr/lib64/dri/nouveau_dri.so failed
(/usr/lib64/dri/nouveau_dri.so: cannot open shared object file: No such
file or directory)

And yet here I am using evolution to type this mail.
Have you tried checking syslog, or booting with 'enforcing=0'?
