Comment 2 for bug 24315

sorry, i couldn't catch the /var/log/Xorg.0.log file you requested. when i set up the live session options i can access a terminal and
the file has not been written until i confirm the final option. the system then starts up and at the end when the xserver should be
started, the monitor turns itself off. but the computer is still running. the fan speed is still regulated and the usb stick is still
alight, which seems to be normal at linux even though is is dismounted. i tried to use an external monitor but the result is the same.

I am using the following options to start:

live-expert noapic nolapic hw-detect/start_pcmcia=false

these options are required to start the os as i quoted in the workaround dor bug #20732.

when it comes to setting up the xserver options i give the following options

1. graphics driver: "ati"
2. the system recognises my graphics card and suggests that "ati Radeon mobility x700" is my graphics card, which is correct
3. i accept "PCI:1:0:0" which the set-up suggests (i don't know anything better)
4. video memory in kB: "131072"
5. use framebuffer: "no"
6. suggested resolutions: 1680x1050, 1400x1050, 1024x768 (other settings apart don't seem to influence the result)
7. optimal resolution: "1680x1050@75Hz"
8. bit: "24"
9. Runlevel: i tried to leave this field empty as i don not exactly know what this means and another time i tried "5". the result was
equal:
10. the system starts up and the terminal is no longer accessible
