Knoppix won't run on MSI 1029 (M635 megabook)
Knoppix 5.01 and 3.9 version will not work on my new laptop (detailed specification below). The boot up seems to work fine until it tries to load X windows. When tries to start X windows, my screen goes blank and stays that way. I think the command line functions seem to work (I tried them in debug mode just fine). My laptop seems to be ok on Win XP. It also has Fedora Core 4 on its hard drive, which works fine.
Here the specs of my laptop:
MSI 1029 (M635 megabook)
CPU: AMD Turion TM-32 64
Chipset: ATi RX480 + ATi SB400 Chipset
RAM: Corsair DDR 400 512 MB & 1 GB modules (passes memtest for 3 horus+)
Graphics: ATi Mobile X700 with 128MB
HD: 60 GB 5400 rpm Panasonic
Optical: Dual-Layer DVD/CD burner
Wireless: Atheros 5004X 108Mbps Super A/G
LCD : 15.4" WXGA(1280 X 800)
Any ideas on how to get knoppix working would be helpful!
