... sure, but (please pardon my ignorance) ... HOW ?

Though I've heard that there are manual workarounds to this issue, my point 
is that for the "average user" (is there such a thing? <G> ) the standard 
"desktop" installation process doesn't work (with the Intel video chipset, 
945GM).

I appreciate your patience with this because I believe it's a mainstream, 
rather than rare, issue - for the following reasons.  I read, recently, that 
some huge percentage of PC sales (something like 85%) are, now, notebooks, 
rather than workstations!!!  Many (most?) of these modern PC sales rely upon 
Intel video chipsets.  So, if Linux is to appeal to this vast majority of PC 
purchasers, the installation had better work ... as expected.

Thanks for your bug report.  Could you please try removing the 'usplash'
and 'quiet' options from the kernel boot line?  This should produce a
more informative boot process and will allow us to better troubleshoot
your issue.  Thanks in advance.
