The live CD boots fine.

The problem previously was not the liveCD, but the graphics after
an alternate CD install and reboot. In previous releases I have had
liveCDs boot and show graphics, but the intel driver fail after an
install and reboot. So I am not sure the current test of booting
a liveCD proves anything.

The lspci output was in the previous email. There are no X logs
with a failure, since I cannot reinstall now. Perhaps it is fixed,
or perhaps someone else can test this.

Thanks,
Jan
