Downloaded the Live CD beta last night.

Burned it. The Live CD does not identify my graphics card. After the boot
bar I get a blank screen, with my lcd monitor claiming "unknown signal and
then "going to sleep". Pressing alt-f2 and looking at the xorg.conf shows a
"configured graphics card" rather than the "ati" driver in my 8.04
xorg.conf. Selecting safe mode on the livecd has no effect.

What can I do to help resolve this,
Shawn MacFarland
