There seems to be a new problem - the kernel is currently screwed when using KMS. It won't even boot. I think this is the problem you were hitting 2blue. A serious regression just at the end of testing. I don't think 12.10 should be released in this state.....you can only stretch workarounds so far.....

The last ISO I tested was from the 19th of Sept and that was fine. Yesterdays live/desktop ISO (28/9/2012) fails to start the Xorg server. It reports that no devices are detected. Creating a very simple xorg.conf overcomes the problem: Section "Device" Identifier "Card0" Driver "radeon" BusID "PCI:0:16:0" EndSection I'll attach the Xorg.0.log from running with and without the above xorg.conf.
