Hi,

To solve my problem I had to do the following.

1 - Boot with safe mode enabling "xforcevesa i915.modeset=0"
2 - Choose to boot with lower resolution
3 - rename the xorg.conf.safemode to xorg.conf in /etc/X11/
4 - Add the "i915.modeset=0" as a parameter in the normal boot

It does not detect correctly the monitor, but at least boots now.

Intel video card

Thanks,
