[Bug 575259] [NEW] LiveCD 10.04 isn't usable in Semp Toshiba IS1462

Public bug reported:

Hi

LiveCD 10.04 won't be usable in Semp Toshiba IS1462.

The openchrome driver don't work. Only blank screen is visible and no CLI can be visible after the kdm start. I know Kdm starts because I can hear the sound, but there's only blank screen after ctrl+alt+F1 or F2. The notebook have a VGA compatible controller described bellow:
product: CN896/VN896/P4M900 [Chrome 9 HC]
vendor: VIA Technologies, Inc.
physical id: 0
bus info: pci at 0000:01:00.0
version: 01
width: 32 bits
clock: 66MHz
capabilities: bus_master cap_list
configuration: latency=32 mingnt=2
resources: memory:c0000000-dfffffff(prefetchable) memory:f8000000-f8ffffff

The laptop screen is a 14.1 1280x800.
To worse, the LiveCD boot screen don't have a safe graphic mode option that I can start X with a vesa generic drive, what I used to do in previous releases.
My luck is I upgraded my system from 9.10 and it has a xorg.conf manualy configured with a vesa driver.

Thus, LiveCD 10.04 isn't usable in Semp Toshiba IS1462.
