Bug Description
Binary package hint: debian-installer
During installation of Ubuntu Gutsy tribe-3, the screen was distorted after installation of X.
First part of the installation the display looked fine, but after X installation the screen showed colored blocks instead of characters.
The installation could be completed, pressing enter to accept default choices where needed.
After reboot, X started correctly using Intel driver.
Installation type was alternate for AMD64.
System is a Compal IFL91 notebook with Intel GM965 chip-set (with on-board graphics).

I made a new installation, with Gutsy Tribe 4 (amd64 alternate CD).
The result was very similar to the above, only with tribe 4 the screen went black, instead of the colored blocks I got with tribe 3. I was able to complete the installation blindly, by simply pressing enter a few times. After reboot X again worked fine.
