Bug Description

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg

When i'm installing xubuntuRC from CD, after/meanwhile step "configuring xserver-xorg" my screen will be black with two white pixels. The other installation step (configuring other packages, grub installation, CD eject) work good, but i don't see anything - just a black screen with two pixel. After reboot (installation finished - I just press enters.), i have grub, and xubuntu good work.

strapal: thanks for your testing; do you know of any version that you have successfully installed with. Could you also try doing an installation with:

  debian-installer/framebuffer=false

on the installer menu command line.

with "debian-installer/framebuffer=false" the installation was normal (without "blackscreen")!!!
