For me, it’s a well known problem: all these super live cds (e.g. Knoppix or like we have it today: Ubuntu) do not start as expected: X-Window always fails to set up everything correctly, but only on my pcs… Maybe it’s Dell’s fault?
After getting the console on my Inspiron 6400 I had to fet a new driver with sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx, edit the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file, replace the Driver in the section “Device” from vesa to fglrx and restart the X-Window server with startx. Always funny, especially for beginners, right?
By the way: it’s a ATI Radeon Mobility X1400 as gpu.
