Richard:

Yes, we share the same vidchip and rev. And my xorg.conf was changed to
match yours. What happens now is I get a screen that starts off looking
OK, but then pops up a message box for either "User switcher has quit
unexpectedly" or "Internal Error filed to initialize HAL!" The mouse
cursor is locked and ctl-alt-bksp has no effect, but I can get to VTs
and do magic-sysreq operations.

I'm not installing - I'm running Live. What I'd like to do, for testing,
is boot into rescue mode, fix xorg.conf, and then run a little script at
VT1 that will take me into a normal gdm login. Can't figure out what
bits and pieces (HAL, sessionmanager, startx) have to be invoked in what
order to get me there.

Will get the RC and test some more on Saturday
