Hi Dan,

I hope you can help me in some way...

Yesterday I spend some time on IRC 
http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2008/11/02/%23xubuntu.html time starting at  09:01 
_sebastian1
and we went though all we could think of but nothing helped/worked.

so I pulled the xorg.conf from my backup (gutsy) and copied it to the intrepid 
install it seemed to work as the machine was
working. but in the end it X cam up saying it could only run in low gaphics 
mode. As mouse, thouchpad or keyb did not work
I could not press the OK button.

I attached the xorg.conf from gutsy and the log file

slowly I am loosing it - I had a go with the hardy live CD and it went without 
problems. I used the intrepid live cd with
an even older notebook and it worked...

Maybe you have a idea!?

cheers, sebastian
