I figured out a (dirty) workaround at least for the SIS 66x/76x Users. Adding a "vga=788", starts the fbdev driver and it will be used for the xserver in the installation too.
I still recommend to fix the boot image Xorg server to recognise "xforcevesa", but at least this quick hack helps. ** Attachment added: "Xorg-fixed.log" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/33975560/Xorg-fixed.log -- too old xorg server in 9.10 desktop install causes issues with forcevesa / safe graphics installation https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/445881 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
