That's exactly it. That will boot you into the 'Live' desktop, which doesn't install anything onto your computer.
From there, you can mount partitions, and then edit files as you need to. The file you probably want right now is:
If you can find out which partitions are which, and mount them using the LiveCD desktop, for example:
Code:
$ mount /dev/sda3 /mnt
Then edit the xorg config file:
Code:
$ nano -w /mnt/etc/X11/xorg.conf
And temporarily change the nvidia driver, to good old vesa:
Code:
Identifier "Device0"
Driver "nvidia"
VendorName "NVIDIA Corporation"
to:
Code:
Identifier "Device0"
Driver "vesa"
VendorName "NVIDIA Corporation"
Then, unmount your root partition:
$ umount /mnt
And then reboot the LiveCD desktop, take out the CD when it lets you, and then boot your computer normally, and see what happens!
