As you have observed this is a problem not specific to debian-live so it is unlikely you will get much help here. Please report bugs in Debian packages unrelated to debian-live in the debian bug tracking system or try to use a general Debian mailing list or irc. > > I posted a request for help in the debian forums and so far no one has any > advice.

You did not provide much information about the kernel and xserver-xorg-* packages used nor any errors that might appear in kernel and X server logs. Your problem is likely specific to your hardware so nobody else can see what is wrong unless you can provide the information, here or anywhere else.
