9.1 RC1 black screen after new user wizard

[malco_2001]

I am able to install 9.1 on both my macbook and compaq CQ57 laptops. After clicking finish after creating the first user my screen goes black on both laptops. Both laptops have an intel graphics card. I am able to get past the xorg config. It seems to shut down or lock up the laptop.

I'm not sure that I will be able to grab logging information. Even pressing control alt f1, etc will not switch me back to a terminal.

The release does however work fine on my desktop which has an nvidia card. I was able to use the beta 1 release on the same hardware and it worked up until the 9.1 release.

Sounds like a video issue. Does it lock up if you choose the display wizard from the boot menu and select Vesa for the driver?

If I pressed 6 when booting I was not able to get the display wizard to come back up. Instead it would just boot to the create a new user screen which would lock up every time. I was however able to press 5 to boot X in vesa mode and that worked. After creating the user and rebooting i was able to get in with the intel driver as well.
