I have entrance running on Mandrake, and I do not believe it to be 
difficult to have the same method working on fedora.
After setting DISPLAYMANAGER in /etc/sysconfig/desktop (I use the value 
"e17" and hence the next example will use it as well - but replace it 
with whatever you want), edit prefdm with the following:

locate the lines that say prefered=gdm, prefered=xdm, etc' and add to 
the bottom of the list:

elif [ "$DISPLAYMANAGER" = "E17" -o "$DISPLAYMANAGER" = "e17" ] ; then
      preferred=entranced

thats it - you are now good to go: restart X ('service dm restart' on 
Mandrake, maybe 'init 3; init 5' elsewhere. don't just zap it with 
CTRL-ALT- BACKSPACE) and entrance should come up.
