Can you toggle capslock, use ctrl-alt-delete or the magic sysrq key,
or ssh into the machine in this state?

Does a text-only (e.g., "single user mode") boot work ok?  If so,
does running

	dmesg >dmesg.before; startx; dmesg >dmesg.after

reveal anything interesting?  Does the X fbdev driver behave any
better?  (See [1] for details on setting it up.)

Which is the newest working version you tested?

Thanks for an interesting report, and hope that helps.

Sincerely,
