What happens if you use: http://x.x.x.x/wordpress/index.php
Check the apache error_log for details on this error.

Regards

What distro are you using? Could be a SELinux permissions problem.

It is Fedora 11.

So it's more likely SELinux.
Running
Code:
ls -Z /var/www/html/wordpress
should tell you if that's the case.
I'm not very familiar with SELinux but after reading a little, I think that yu should run
Code:
chcon -R -h -t httpd_sys_content_t /var/www/html/wordpress
to change the security context.

Take a look again at error_log to see if you find more on this error

[Thu Aug 20 12:53:06 2009] [error] [client 32.53.34.166] Directory index forbidden by Options directive: /var/www/html/

There is a virtualhost config like this in your appache configuration files:
Code:
<VirtualHost 111.22.33.44>
    ServerName www.xxxx.com
    DocumentRoot /var/www/html
</VirtualHost>
Here you define the name of your site and the directory which contains the code for your web. Add this to the config file. (the section Directory)
Code:
<VirtualHost 111.22.33.44>
    ServerName www.xxxx.com
    DocumentRoot /var/www/html
    <Directory "/var/www/html/wordpress">
        AllowOverride None
        Options All
        Order allow,deny
        Allow from all
        DirectoryIndex index.php index.html index.htm
    </Directory>
</VirtualHost>
The Options should be not None but All.
Although I have no idea for what do you need this - it worked for me.
NOTE!!
I did not examine what such configuration can cause on your web. Do this on your own responsibility.

This is not the wordpress directory, but your DocumentRoot. Does wordpress work now?
As for the error, you have to add "+Indexes" in the Options directive for the Directory in question and maybe add index.php in the DirectoryIndex line as hua mentioned.

When i typed in http://10.22.36.11/wordpress/wp-install/install.php it came up. But now i have problems with mysql. So i figure out that I install fedora again. I think that is the best thing to do now.

IMHO you don't have to reinstall the OS. If it's a generic mysql problem post it here, or create another thread for it.
If it's specific to WP, I think that you can read the wordpress documentation on how to add a table in mysql to use it with WP.
