Created attachment 153870 [details] contents of /var/log/Xorg.log
corrected description of attachment
Can you also attach /var/log/Xorg.0.log please?
That was what I attached in the original message, it just got incorrectly titled "output from lspci" it should have been labelled "contents of /var/log/Xorg.0.log" Sorry for the confusion -- Steve
This problem also affects the final release version The text displayed on screen is: Out of Range H. Frequency 31.2 KHz V. Frequency 29.3 Hz In fact the machine appears to fail to completely boot up. If I type ctrl-alt-f1 the last thing displayed on console1 is Enabling /etc/fstab swaps: [ OK ] the other consoles hadn't even started up
