I have installed Debian Wheezy today.



when i boot Debian wheezy when splash logo about to open, the screen blanks and system hangs, but Debian stable was booted without errors, but



I changed init parameter to init=/bin/sh,
Then mount -o remount,rw /



its all ok, but when i try to start x server with this command:



Xorg


The screen is blank and system locked.



There isn't a /etc/X11/xorg.conf and /etc/X11/xorg.conf.failsafe



What i tried so far:



copied https://launchpadlibrarian.net/21150771/xorg.conf.failsafe
to /etc/X11/xorg.conf, when i start Xorg it says no screens found, when i reboot without touching init= command, the screen is still hang and blank at bootup logo.



Tried Xorg -configure, generated xorg.conf but not worked.



What i can do? P.S. i have readon 2600 HD pro

          Please post the output of the following command:



          grep -A3 -B3 "(EE)" /var/log/Xorg.0.log


          That's a way to get the lines containing (EE), which are important as they indicate errors. The command will also include 3 lines before and after each error, just to get a little bit more context.
