I'm new to Q4OS and I'm running into some issues getting it up and running on my Dell Inspiron 3452 laptop. I tried it in a VM first and it worked great. The installation on the laptop went fine, but I'm having issues getting the video to work correctly.
If I boot without nomodeset, then it boots but xserver fails to start and I get the command line login screen. Here's the output of lspci -k for this:

Anyone know how I might go about fixing this so it will boot correctly without a second monitor plugged in? Thanks in advance.

I just realized there was an error in my original post in this section:
If I boot with nomodeset with an external monitor plugged into the HDMI port, it boots correctly and I get the desktop extended across both displays as expected at the correct resolutions.
I get correct behavior if I boot WITHOUT nomodeset and an external monitor plugged in.
