[Bug 542950] [NEW] [Needs noaccel quirk] Screen corruption on startup

Binary package hint: xorg

I'm testing out the Lucid beta by booting from a USB drive.  Initial
splash screen displays progress.  When boot up sequence switches to the
X display, the screen becomes corrupted.  There are portions of the
screen from the last time the system ran, but they are scattered across
the screen.  I can hear the Ubuntu startup sounds, so the system is
coming up.  However, I'm not able to access anything on the screen so I
can't open a terminal to enter any commands.  I'm also not able to
switch to a tty.  Hitting ctrl-alt-f1 - f6 do nothing.

Any clues on how I can debug this.

Live disk is AMD 64 version running on an Athlon 64 with an Nvidia
GeForce 6100 graphics card
