No idea about this. What about a default boot that used to lock up

Well this is truly odd. It locks up at many different places. I know
this sounds crazy but the point it locks up at seems to be related to
whether I select the default boot image to boot immediately or just
let it time out and boot. It's almost like there is a timer that
begins when grub loads and the system locks up a certain time after
that no matter where it is in the boot sequence.
This sounds like a hardware issue except that I've been able to
install mga1 and openSUSE 12.1 sucessfully on this laptop since my
first attempts to install mga2. I've also run an extensive RAM test
and everything looks good.
What I'm trying to figure out is whether a normal boot with autostart of
X turned off (as it is now) has video problems. I suspect that changing
inittab didn't really change the runlevel for some reason, and assuming
that unchecking the box in XFdrake did this successfully, I'd like to
know if a default boot still has the problem.
Leave safe boot out of it for now, as that clearly has problems of its own.
