Till some update the computer don't freeze anymore, only the screen becomes black. Remote login with SSH still works and it seems like I still can use the local shell but without any output on the screen.

If I comment out "load GLcore" in Section Module, the computer freeze immediately after the startx command.

Knoppix 4.0.2 DVD with pci=noacpi acpi=off and kernel 2.6.12 works fine. Ubuntu with 2.6.12 don't work so I think there's a problem with xorg7. I'm not a specialist, my speculations really could be wrong.

Keep on the good work and thanks for your effort!
