I can confirm I experience this too on default settings on an eeepc 701.
Starting in safe mode works - as does setting xorg=fbdev but only on the livecd splash screen. When I tried to set xorg=fbdev within xorg.conf I got into the same xorg crash / reboot cycle. I ended up reinstalling the OS entirely. On reinstall - I set xorg=fbdev when opening the livecd, that setting seemed to have persisted as I am getting the full 800x480 resolution
