UPDATE:
I have try to update intel drivers from official page. It seems it doesnt support Fedora 26. Changing /etc/fedora-release for 25 version, updating, rebooting, and restoring /etc/fedora-release again doesnt work.
If I modify grub entry adding init 3
, and start in terminal mode, try to reconfigure X using X -configure
I get this error:
X.Org X Server 1.19.3
Release Date: 2017-03-15
X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0

You do not see a driver listed in lshw so I would check there, and see if the intel driver has a problem. Check the website for the computer, to see if they have drivers.
I have tried but it seems no official support to Fedora 26. In fedora 25 worked propertly.
iGPU in i7-6500U should be working fine out of the box, without drivers from 01.org .
Try creating fresh USB flash drive with Fedora 26 Cinnamon. Make sure you verify .iso file checksum or use Fedora Media Writer in current system to download and write image to USB. After you boot from it, login and open terminal (Ctrl+Alt+T) and run
and
and paste their output here using https://paste.fedoraproject.org/
If Cinnamon will work there fine in hardware rendering mode then your installation is corrupted and fresh install will help, otherwise it might be a hardware issue.
In other computer I did the following steps:
So it's not a corrupted installation if fresh bootable USB also doesn't work in normal mode. You can boot Fedora 25 from USB to check if it's not just a recent regression.
Post here also dmesg output and /var/log/Xorg.0.log from your installed Fedora 26.
P.S. You can use sha256 -c checksum_file to verify checksums, just keep both files in the same directory. https://getfedora.org/verify
