I ran into the same issue a couple of weeks ago. It seems that
Fedora-packaged version of blender is buggy. What I did was to go to
blender's home page, download the latest .tar version, unpacked it, and
it worked flawlessly.

Blender is apparently designed to run autonomously from the directory
structure of its own (unpacked) .tar archive. So just unpack it
somewhere, cd into it, and do

  ./blender

Works perfectly, loads files and all. ;-) I didn't bother to find out
what is wrong with the Fedora-packaged version. Probably a bug should
be filed against the package.

HTH, :-)
