Have you updated xorg-x11-server-Xorg ?  The 1.6.0 version of the Intel
(i180) driver requires xorg-x11-server-Xorg 1.1.0 (okay, 1.0.99.something),
whereas FC5 including updates only has version 1.0.1, at least according
to its documentation.

1.5.1 is the last version of the Intel driver that should work with
the version of xorg-x11-server-Xorg in FC5.

That said, I'm not sure exactly what breaks if you use a lower version.
1.6.0 might have other things that require updating to more of a 7.1
tree.
