Comment 3 for bug 61285

This problem also exists in hardy beta (19-Mar-2008 CD).
I have a GeForce 8500 GT (10de:0421) with DVI and VGA output
and use the VGA output.
No output from kernel start to X start (which means for the install
CD that "Check CD" simply goes blank and you never see anything
again).
The "vga=0x314" on the kernel line helps with kernel boot output,
but unfortunately the text consoles (CTRL-ALT-Fx) write black on
black, i.e. I see only the cursor moving :-(
