Hi. I did a fresh install for FC5 (32bit), and the drivers are already 
in /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers. I've had the query on Fedoraforum for 2 
weeks, and the Fedora mailing list for a few days with no replies, but never 
mind. Hopefully it may get fixed by updates.

I had a similar problem with FC4 on the other machine with a cyberblade i1 
card using the trident driver. Had to change to the vesa one to get X to 
start, but after doing all the updates for FC4, was able to change back to 
the trident driver.

Anyway, Ogle seems to be working ok.

Ogle version 0.9.2-7.fc5  (from freshrpms)
