Here's how I got my system running for the record. * Booted the live CD in safe graphics mode (F4 at the boot screen I think?), and ran the installer from there. The alternative (text-mode) installer would presumably also worked. * Booted my new install in recovery mode, and went to a console. * Edited my /etc/X/xorg.conf and inside Screen "default" there's a line which says something like Driver "nv" or "nvidia" or some such ... I changed this to "vesa" * Now X would work, although it looked pretty bad * Then Jockey told me proprietary drivers are available, and installed the proprietory driver. * Now everything works fine
