Bug Description

Binary package hint: bootcd-i386

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

Edit:

Oh I nearly forgott, I got a GeForce 6800GS
