And is a problem with xresprobe of the i810 family of intel onboard
video cards. The only fix I've seen is to either hack your own install
and not run xresprobe or install a video card to at least run the
install and then reconfigure xserver-xorg.  One of the reporters went to
alt f2 during the install and did a chroot into the installing target
and substituted a dummy script for xresprobe before xserver is
configured to get his to not blank out.
