I see this bug claims it is related to the PageFlip option
which is enabled by default.

Presumably if you disable PageFlip, the spamming would stop
(and it is probably OK to disable since it isn't working anyway :-).

This is what I gathered by Googling the problem, but
I have no idea on how to disable PageFlip. Does Fedora 29
use modesettting by default or does it use the xorg intel driver?
As you can see I am slightly confused by everything I've read
on xorg and how it handles Intel video.
I know when I put an xorg.conf file in /etc/X11, X refused to
start and I was left with a blank screen.
I since discovered that disabling composting in the Mate
window manager stops the xorg log spamming. I don't understand
that connection.
Thanks
