Just did following exercise on my "ancient" IBM Thinkpad 570 machine (see lshw/lspci -a attachments):
Used livecd from 10th Mar (uname -a attached)
In the boot menu removed quiet splash from the boot line

Assuming by default fbdev used got "distorted log in" screen (see picture attached)
Used xforcevesa and during the boot got "Console: switching to colour frame buffer device 80x30" message. After logged in from commandline, retrieved following (Xorg.0.log,xorg.conf) from the system after tried startx
