Skyrim in Fedora

I was able to run Skyrim on my PC using ubuntu 11.10. Now, using Fedora 17, I am having a strange issue that I cannot find reported anywhere else.

Steam is installed, HL and HL2 and all their variants run great.

When I launch Skyrim from Steam, I am presented with the SkyrimLauncher, when I launch the game from here, the window presented is full of garbage (it is a mishmash of things previously drawn on the screen). The odd part is that the audio kicks in, and I can even press enter, start a new game, and hear all the sounds associated, but I never get any video output in the window. It stays a static bunch of garbage.

The results are the same with the nouveau drivers and the proprietary nvidia drivers. I have tried with GLSL disabled and OffscreenRendering set to backbuffer with no difference noticed.

This is a the output of launching steam, selecting Skyrim, and sitting at the main menu listening to the chanting music, then killing Skyrim and closing steam.
