First thing - try updating to 3.2 it should have greater hardware compatibility. Post back if you are still having problems.

HI aay ,
I got this copy free with a magazine (too good to be true).I have tried different cheats but no luck.I wondered if there is a way to start X in a lowres mode...Was informed that my card was vesa vga but all I get is blurred screen....

What cheat codes have you used? Have you tried knoppix xserver=XF86_SVGA xvrefresh=60 vga=normal maybe even screen=640x480 in there too.
