"if I boot 6.0.10 desktop install CD, Gnome starts and gives me a total
ripped up image with green stripes instead of a desktop. This also
happens in secure graphics mode, wich should normaly force VESA. If I
edit the xorg.conf manually and change from "nv" to "vesa" everything
works, and gnome starts up with it`s full beauty :)  As far as I see,
the xforcevesa bootoption dosen`t affect the xorg.conf"

So we have two issues here:

 * First we have a problem with some Geforce Cards.
 * Vesa is not used in the secure graphics mode (at least for these cards).
