I think I figured it out.
For several versions of RH (8 and 9 I think) as well as FC1, I have a custom rc.local that toggles 3-button emulation value within the XF86Config, based on presence/absence of 3 button USB mouse. It copies one or other private copies of the config into the right place.
Well I forgot it was still there when I installed FC2 and rebooted after the install without turning off the rc.local. So, on the first boot-up, it plonked an XF86Config into /etc/X11. It looks to me like Xorg is willing to work with an XF86Config, so Xorg was getting configured from the older config file. Possibly one of the options was messing Xorg around.
What I did was remove the rc.local behaviour and the XF86Config file. I was hoping the system would notice no config, and try to re-configure a (new) xorg.conf, but it didn't, so everything worked off of supposedly reasonable defaults. Anyway, after rebooting without the XF6Config, Xorg came up fine, and Java3D textures were working again.
Seems to me like Xorg is a bit slower when modifying the transform of my 3D model when I do rotates and zooms - the animation seems jerkier than just a couple of days ago.
I'm now going to try to set up a custom xorg.conf, since my usb mouse scroller no longer works. With any luck, I can get it to work....
