Bug Description
Binary package hint: xserver-xorg
I have two graphics cards in my workstation - Nvidia 8800GT on bus 128:0:0 and ATI x1650 on bus 96:0:0. When booting Linux, I select the ATI card as the active one in BIOS. The X server shipped with Debian unstable deals with them correctly depending on which one is active. The X Server shipped with 8.10 release just fails to start by default.
I have to hand edit the xorg.conf and specify a BusID in the device section to get the server to start the live cd installer.
