Knoppix 6.7 desktop doesn't load, ATI HD4670 Video Card

[Stefan Reich]

I'm having the same problem with Knoppix 6.7.0, apparently. The adapter is a Radeon HD 3450 (as witnessed by the boot loader). As it tries to start X, all you get to see is weird random stripes.

Hi everybody,

i had the same problem on my Toshiba Satellite P300 D-21M with the adapter ATI Radeon HD 3650. Try the cheatcode KNOPPIX NODRM on the prompt boot:
For me it is a turnaround, thoug i try Knoppix to rescue some data from a crashes installation.
Later on booting you have to press CTRL+ALT+F5 and wait about one minute, then the screen is there. good luck.

Toshiba A15 laptop crashes on the fancy graphic gizzy in 6.6 - weird messages on screen, cannot get to the desktop. 4.4 loaded just fine.
