Over the past months I've tried 3 times to get X working satisfactorily on the live-cd. No success yet. The last bug that stumped me was a strange move-the-mouse-to-flush-stdin bug. Let me elaborate:
1. I type some text in a shell. The text doesn't show up immediately as I type. 2. I wait for a second or so and the text doesn't show up . 3. I move the mouse around, and what I typed finally shows up in the shell. I'm hoping that the recent sysv shm work fixes this, but I haven't tested it yet.
