I've not tried creating a new user but I think it is user specific as it had
stopped working for me but worked for root (until I patched root too in an
attempt to fix it).  As a newbie to the command line a couple of pointers at
creating a new user to test this would be appreicated.

The screen goes blank at the point it changes from text mode to "hires".
Its before any KDE splash screen or login screen is displayed.

I'll try the other suggestions later.  Thanks for the help so far.

Chris
