I can only say I'm runnig on a sandybridge CPU i7-2600K with GPU kernel driver i915 and have absolutly no problems at all.

Is your kernel tainted? check this:
# cat /proc/sys/kernel/tainted

I'm I not in 2013? Is this back to 1999 so I need to recompile my own kernel to get anything working? I have been using Fedora since FC1 and reported numerous bugs but none stopped me from working, since F16 kernel (sandybridge atleast) is shit. I have F17 and F18beta on few other machines and they are working great. I'm considering switching to F18 but 32bit kernel and crossing my fingers.

I'm willing to work with kernel developers and anybody else to track down root cause of this issue and help other Fedora and future Red Hat users to avoid this issue, but so far nobody is interested.

How about just installing a plain vanilla 3.6.11 or 3.7.1 from
kernel.org?
