+Don't you mean "X does not start" rather than "it just won't boot"? Or
+have I missed something fundamental here?
+
+I already somewhat wasted your time earlier because I got you to get all
+sorts of interesting debug for me because I thought it was a boot/init
+problem, but it turns out X is just failing to initialise the vesa
+driver.... have I missed some details on this problem?
+
+Sorry for asking, but as you say it's an important issue.
