I recommend that you do a text based install (add text to the boot

I'm curious whether it's necessary to disable acceleration entirely,
or simply revert to the older XAA method. On my Thinkpad X40, the
Intel video driver in F10 had significant problems, where the driver
on F9 was fine. I could either use XAA or revert to the older driver
to get proper rendering.
I've attached a minimal xorg.conf. I believe you can save it to
/etc/X11 to test each of the options individually. Try disabling
accel, and then try using XAA (both options are in the file). Let us
know what kind of results you get, and then track down one of the
bugzilla reports on this subject (I know a few are open) and add your
information.
here is the pertinant section of the xorg.conf for my aspire one which
has intel gfx, this is on F10 and it works perfectly
Section "Device"
Identifier "Card0"
Driver "intel"
VendorName "Intel Corporation"
BoardName "Mobile 945GME Express Integrated Graphics Controller"
VideoRam 229376
Option "MonitorLayout" "LVDS,VGA"
Option "Clone" "true"
Option "AccelMethod" "EXA"
Option "MigrationHeuristic" "greedy"
Option "CacheLines" "1980"
BusID "PCI:0:2:0"
EndSection

you haven't by any chance figured out how to get LVDS to use a larger
virtual screen - say 1024 x 768 have you? I've been unable to do that on
my Aspire One.
Craig
no sorry craig, i think i remember reading somewhere that the only way
to get the "Virtual" setting to work is to pass the "NoAccel" "true"
option but i've not tried it
----
would you have "NoAccel" "true" instead of "AccelMethod" "EXA" ? is that
the idea?
Craig
yeah that's it, let me know if it works out
