Don't you mean "X does not start" rather than "it just won't boot"? Or
have I missed something fundamental here?

I already somewhat wasted your time earlier because I got you to get all
sorts of interesting debug for me because I thought it was a boot/init
problem, but it turns out X is just failing to initialise the vesa
driver.... have I missed some details on this problem?

Sorry for asking, but as you say it's an important issue.
