Okay, we're slowly moving forward ...
My first attempt got the error "kwin-plasma won't run as root" or
somesuch. Created a new user for me, and promptly got a black screen!
As I said earlier, X currently won't run. I've got a Asus EAH4350, and
am loading the Radeon driver. When I looked at the X log it was clearly
loading the driver, which failed with something like "cannot find
/dev/card1". If that gives anyone any clues where to point me that's
great, or I'll transfer the logs to this machine and post them.
Cheers,
Wol
