I'm using a TripleHead2Go to host 2 1920x1080 monitors as one massive 3840x1080 display in addition to my laptop's 1920x1200 display. If I try boooting with it plugged in, however, it hangs and never makes it to the login screen.

Things basically completely hang right before displaying the login screen; they seem to hang indefinitely. I have no idea why this adapter is causing things to hang. I was able to get the log by simply booting to a root shell and starting lightdm like so:

(sleep 30 && cp /var/log/Xorg.0.log ~/Desktop) & 
sudo service lightdm start

Here's the whole log, available on pastebin. The display is DFP1, I believe.

What's going wrong here?

You may need to post the full log somewhere. (you don't need to post screenshots of it, it's a text file) – Alexios May 2 '12 at 4:55
I've posted the log on pastebin and updated the question. Hopefully that helps. If any more logs or testing on my port is required, please don't hesitate to ask. – TK Kocheran May 2 '12 at 5:31
