Bug Description

Excuse me first for bad english...
I have an hp dv4266 with ati mobility x700.
I try to run the feisty cd but X don't start in both mode (safe or not). I think that is for the xorg 7.2.
I have now on my PC an edgy and i tried to install xorg 7.2 on this with the same problem.
With xorg open source ati driver X starts but i don't see the real image but the screen become all black quickly.

I believe the vesa-problem is solved, but more interesting would be to get ati working. Can you try a gutsy prerelease (live-cd is fine), and provide the xorg.conf and Xorg.0.log if it fails?
