Yes of course.

It is hard to say. It booted into X, but the CD has no Mozilla, where
the problem shows more frequently, and kaffeine (the only video
player) refused to run my files, but I am assuming it is an unrelated
problem.
The beta also failed to mount my hard drives and after a short time
hard locked with a kernel panic of sorts.

So, it may be better, since I did not see any display quirks in the
short time until the panic, but I can't be sure. If you have a better
idea how to run Mozilla or vlc with the live cd let me know.

Thanks, Joseph

I tried again, and unfortunately, yes, the problem still exists in Feisty Beta.

Thanks, Joseph

In the savage man page there is listed some options that you might try out in order to narrow down this problem. Can you for instance try: Option "BCIforXv" "false"

Is your "kernel panic" related to the savage driver? Can you try disabling DRI, or try: Option "BusType" "PCI"

Problem persists with Ubuntu feisty beta live CD

Can you try "BCIforXv" or "BusType" "PCI" as suggested above?
