[Bug 880580] [NEW] X doesn't start in oneric live usb due to poulsbo driver

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

I'm trying to get Oneric running on this system. Running a freshly downloaded Oneric from live usb doesn't work because X won't start (open /dev/fb0 fails, then no screens found). If I 'rmmod poulsbo' from the cli, X subsequently will start, but it uses VESA. 
X should start out of the box. Preferably using something better than vesa. 

(some more background: I also have an 11.04 upgraded to 11.10 on this
system, in 11.04 everything worked thanks to
http://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsVideoCardsPoulsboAlternatives,
but after the upgrade that failed.)
