--- Comment #4 from james.coulthard at verizon.net ---
Result of changing to modesetting driver:
The system booted straight to desktop without the need to manually switch to
VT7.  Screen was not blank at startup; however, the screen did not display
correctly.  The desktop was skewed and looked like a set of wavy lines, like
those found on an old style analog television when the vertical and/or
horizontal scan timing is off.  Mouse pointer appeared unaffected.  

Could not stay on modesetting driver and switched back.  Xorg.0.log of the
session has been provided.  Warning messages are not found in the new logfile.
