In my case(asus 900a), whether I use startx at the boot prompt or let xdm start by default, the X window starts to open and I see a glimpse of the desktop but then the screen goes black and flickers and just the outline of the mouse cursor is visible. If I switch to a console and try to write a command I have to be fast because log messages are being re-directed intermittently from F12 and just pop up on the screen. But livedvd boots ok in my desktop. The log stays where it's supposed to be. Could it be the limited capability of the video chip in the eee? But that doesn't explain the log bleeding over into the console. PC and eee both have 1G ram, FWIW Maxim
