Binary package hint: debian-installer

Still on the G4 Cube with a 22" Cinema Display and Dapper Flight 7 Live.
The screen is vertically split by a width vertical band and part of the display is missing. (The problem appears also with Suse 10.1.) Then the installer fails with difficult to read messages (they are truncated and shifted by a 1 line).

When using video=aty128fb:vmode:22 instead of the recommended and previously working video=ofonly, the vertical band problem disapear, but now the error messages are easier to read:

FATAL: Module fbcon not found.
FATAL: Module vga16fb not found.

PS
I was unable to attach this to the previous report.
