You may need to manually edit your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file and change
the device driver to vesa to get it working.  Maybe afterwards if you
get X to at least start, you might make sure your driver package is
installed, as mine wasn't, which was the radeonhd driver.  Once
installed and setup, working just fine so far (ATI x1300 card).
