Hi Steve, thanks for replying so quickly!

A couple more data points for anyone looking at this:

1. I spoke to someone on #ubuntu-x who said that failsafe mode happens because when X tries to start it already sees an X server running (I confirmed this by looking in the X log).
2. I don't get any problems on a machine with 1440x900 intel graphics (which I guess is because it has the right framebuffers available?)

Cheers.
