** Description changed:

- I'm trying to boot the Intrepid Ibex Alpha 6 Live CD from USB on my HP
+ I'm trying to boot the Intrepid Ibex Alpha 5 Live CD from USB on my HP
  2133 Mininote Laptop. (The 2133 is running Hardy almost flawlessly right
  now). I select 'try live cd' boot option and then the grub splash screen
  works fine. I get the normal ubuntu progress bar. The progress bar runs
  to completion and then the screen blanks as the X server starts.
  
  I then get the normal X windows 'busy' cursor used with Ubuntu. (Round
  white circle with black dots around the edge). However, the cursor is
  off center and corrupted a bit. But, most importantly, the laptop is
  completely frozen.
  
  I tried booting with 'xforcevesa' with no success. I also hit 'esc' in
  Grub and then 'f4' to select the 'safe graphics mode' option and that
  also failed.
  
  I'd be happy to try any experiments that you recommend to trouble-shoot
  this. For example, are there other Linux boot options (such as 'video'
  or 'vga') that would dumb-down the live CD X installer enough to get a
  handle on what's going wrong?
