What do you see if you disable rhgb from the kernel boot line in GRUB 
(press any key at the message to enter the menu, press 'e' at the FC 
entry and 'e' again at the line in question. Press enter after you made 
your change. To boot, press 'b'). Maybe it is having trouble to laod the 
default video driver, since FC3 loads RHGB after udev initialization.
