I was hoping that some changes here should help ...

I will try Ibex again, but the last attempt alpha5 was not good, as I
had a black screen and no X login possible but I did not investigate
more. Sure I will try the beta, but I need a stable up to date release
to test some new version of OpenERP system. Hardy is I think the best
choice.
I manage to boot at least the Hardy Live CD with acpi=off noapic
pnpbios=off irqpoll ! I had network working, so i can update and
investigate now.
Thanks Nils for your answer.
