  The install disk default boot ignores the keyboard after
the screen goes dark.  Previously, the keyboard kept
working.

Better luck with vesa graphics install.  Installation was
nominal even with "nomodeset" removed from DVD boot line.

The resultant install works at 1200x1600 but can't be set
the the 1200x1920 resolution of the Dell 24 inch LCD.

The annoying habit of turning off the network on boot
is still with us.  Talk about something to chase away
novices......

Now to see if I can install the ATI driver to get a
desktop as nice to use as Ubuntu.
