GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="text splash vga=791
to this
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="text splash vga=791 i915.modeset=1
..thx..

ok so this describes what is going on with my BT R2 and R3 live USB's but i have a few questions before i go all crazy editing my GRUB and such.Quote:

when this says to edit the GRUB the way it is written makes it sound like there is a GRUB on the live DVD/USB.......is that the case?
if that is not the case would the GRUB edit for my dual boot computer be just the same as described above and not effect the booting of the other operating systems?
I found an easy way to solve this error permanently for my usb drive.
If you create your live cd or live usb by using unetbootin then open file syslinux.cfg with notepad or anything you have to edit it.
Find the line append initrd=/ubninit file=/cdrom/preseed/custom.seed boot=casper text splash vga=791--
And add quiet i915.modeset=1 to it. You may add xforcevesa noapic noapci nosplash irqpoll as this threat talks about, too. I think so.
So it should be append initrd=/ubninit file=/cdrom/preseed/custom.seed boot=casper quiet splash i915.modeset=1 vga=791-- to me.
Then, save the file and reboot your computer.
Hey dude, I did it and it works fine for me too.Quote:
