Bug report - which package, what severity?



Wheezy AMD64 Binary 1 20110902- 03:20.
Machine is an Acer Aspire 1 model 522 and uses the AMD Fusion C50 CPU/GPU which is pretty new. Installs off USB drive OK (as far as I can see). but after booting from grub there is a message regarding a memory conflict and after a few more messages the screen goes to random noise: all TTYS. There is a hint in among the noise that the graphical login screen is present. Tried recovery mode same deal.
I've got the logs off with a USB live disk.
The following live (USB) disks have been tried
32 bit Ubuntu and Kbuntu 11.04 work fine.
Knoppix 6.4.4 works but the aspect ratio is out.
Knoppix 6.7.0 fails.
I haven't got into grub to get to a terminal.
See also http://manticore-projects.com/content/en/software/guides/aspire522.htm for a link to a "fitted kernel config" If anyone wants to hold my hand for some testing that's fine but I class myself as a persistent timid tinkerer; but I do have a machine.
