Hi!

Sorry, this will be no detailed installation-report, because apart from
this minor issue everything went smooth. But:

My video hardware has not been detected properly and I found my xorg
configured to use the 'vesafb' driver instead of 'ati' or 'radeon'.

My graphics card is an ATI Radeon 9500 Pro. This is the output for
lspci:

        $ lspci -vvv

My machine is manufactured by Targa, a company which is known for
`relabeling' the OEM hardware they assemble. For example, my motherboard
is an 'ASUS A7N8X Targa Edition' with its own firmware version which is
incompatible with the stock ones from the ASUS-Website. However, I guess
that the failed hardware detection of the graphics card has to do with
some modifications the hardware vendor did to the device.

Please reassign this bug to an appropriate package if this is not an
installer issue!

Thank you very much for your effort!!

Cheers,
Fabian
