I've experienced a similar bug back on FC1, but never quite figured out
what it was. I think it started after installing the kde-redhat
packages, and I know it worked after switching back to using a KDE
desktop.

If you try logging in using a KDE desktop (or use switchdesk to change
the default to KDE), does it work then? 

Do you use kde-redhat? (it might have been something else in my case)
