Acer TM 650 (Radeon M7)

vga=normal plus boot-radeon (webpage(5)) works to get text console
back. But switching to X freezes the computer completely.

X from debian sid. 
XFree86 Version 4.3.0.1 (Debian 4.3.0.dfsg.1-10 20041215174925 fabbione@fabbione.net)
Release Date: 15 August 2003
X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0, Release 6.6
Build Operating System: Linux 2.4.26 i686 [ELF] 
Build Date: 15 December 2004


I would like to get X running to, but there are no traces in the logfile
whatsoever to be seen. Pity.

So it seems that my laptop does not fall in any of these categories.

Best wishes

Norbert
