Hello , this similar to my issue - I am using F16 a Dell Laptop (Precision M4500) connected to the docking station and one external monitor. If I am booting kernel kernel-3.1.0-7.fc16.x86_64 all works fine. but if I boot kernel-3.3.7-1.fc16.x86_64 or kernel-3.3.6-3.fc16.x86_64 I do not see the Login Box. Reinhard
