Hi. I've got a lenovo ThinkPad T60p here with the FireGL V5250 and I
have the same problem.

My workaround was as follows:

(1) boot liveCD, X fails as described.
(2) at shell prompt, sudo -s
(2a) apt-get update
(2b) apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx fglrx-control
(2c) dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
(3) SKIP autodetection
(4) select fglrx, resolution of 1680x1050 @ 75Hz (medium detail)

If the above doesn't work, consult the xorg.conf attached for clues?

HTH. I'd love to hear how I can better deal with this problem, esp.
since the T60p is the "official" laptop supported by my uni and I'm
trying to get an Ubuntu derivative for my uni started. Also, please let
me know if I need to add comments to a new/different bug report.

Cheers,
CMP
