Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

I got a text based boot up and login prompt after installing Maverick on
an Acer Aspire 5742z, the live session worked well (video wise). Every
time I try to start x it simply fails. It works in low graphics mode.

I tried Natty Narwhal pre Alpha and got the same, live session works,
actual install doesn't.
