There is nothing wrong with using X11 at runlevel 3. The only thing that can't be present is a display manager (KDM, XDM, GDM etc).
That's _exactly_ what I'm talking about. Run-level 3 starts xdm. Several Linux distros use 2 for multi-user, 3 for multi-user w/X.
Run-level 2 as multi-user w/o networking or w/o NFS was introduced by Red Hat, and any Fedora-based (or RHL-based) distro uses it.
Oh, just one thing. I don't have Fedora here to test, otherwise I would check myself.
Are you sure it is starting xdm at runlevel 3 ? I noticed several distros are not definining the runlevel as a kernel paramter on grub/lilo, which will bypass the one defined on inittab.
