I will do that soon.

But what do you think about to change the screen of technical names ("i810, 
fb, radeon, vmware, vesa, ..") by screen with "selling names" (ATI Radeon 
9200, ...)

If some novice user experienced a bug in detection of ubuntu of videocard, 
he/she see a screen with election of videocard with names that are not 
self-explanatory and not very familiar, if he or she is not expert user. Not 
all the users that comes to that screen are expert.

Ideally, yes. But in practice they could experienced a bug and they don't know 
that.
