Thanks for feedback.

Yes the correct video card is Trio 64 3D and it is listed.  So I went
system settings ==> display and set the correct video card.

Then I got an error message saying that the system would log out of X
and correct an error.  It never came back.  So I rebooted but now the
boot sequence goes to:

Starting udev: (ok)
Initializing hardware..... storage network audio done  (ok)
Configuring kernel parameters:

and there it hangs unresponsive.

Probably I have to start the install process over again?

Regards,
Truls
