Removing the vesa driver from the system eventually lets X start with KMS. Attached is the log for the first failed start (X starts on the second try). The normal log is EXACTLY the same up to that point, which then starts adding hal devices (the first is the tablet pen device). Is this a problem in VESA itself possibly?
