I have let Fedora install the packages it wants and I have added the mesa-dri-drivers-experimental package. I still cannot get and flashy graphics to work, KDM now flashes a rainbow when it starts. I am sure I have missed something but not sure what. I do not want to install the ATI drivers but stay with the Open source ones. OpenGL also does not want to work. I have a x68_64 bit machine with all the latest patches running KDE.

The mesa-dri-drivers-experimental package is only needed for 3D (OpenGL) support, not for general usage.

What happens without the mesa-dri-drivers-experimental package?

Please file a bug at bugzilla.redhat.com with the information mentioned in the wiki: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_debug_Xorg_problems#All_bug_reports We need _at least_ dmesg with the boot parameter drm.debug=15 and your Xorg.0.log in separate text/plain attachments to the bug.
Please also try booting with the nomodeset parameter.
