Yep.
su
rpm -e XFree86 XFree86-sdk --nodeps
ls /etc/X11
if xkb is a directory, remove it (rm -rf /etc/X11/xkb)
that should be enough to get rid of most of the problems. Insert the CD
(or DVD) with the xorg-x11 rpms in, change to the directory containing
them
rpm -Uhv xorg-x11*.rpm --force
Okay, that's overkill, but you'll find it'll zap anything that doesn't
need to be there.
You should find running system-config-display will work then.
Remember to watch the install and check that there are no errors
generated when you install xorg.x11-6.7.0.2 (or whatever it's called).
Warnings aren't that important, the errors are!
TTFN
