Cosmetic?
Everyone gets this message. it's a minor bug that doesn't affect it
working or not. ;)

No.
ok
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation System
Controller Hub (SCH Poulsbo) Graphics Controller (rev 07)
(It is working fine with F13).
I'm very sorry. ;(
So, this is the video adapter that intel subcontraced out the writing
of the driver for, and never open sourced it. ;(
You have 2 choices:
1) You can run in 'vesa' mode. It won't be great, but it should work at
least. Boot the installed with 'linux xdriver=vesa' or choose 'basic
video mode' at the boot up prompts from the media.
2) There's a repackaging of the binary only driver in rpmfusion.
(
rpmfusion.org). However, it doesn't exist for f15, so you would be
stuck on an older release. ;(
Sorry.
