Adventures with TC4

I have installed TC4 netinst a couple of times.
The problem with the screen going black during the default install remains.

I did another install after changing "quiet" to "nomodeset" in netinst.
This install proceeded properly, albeit at reduced resolution.
(Modulo dealing with a non empty HD)

The resulting system ran smoothly but still at less than full 1920x1080 res.
I successfully installed both the current release and later beta test Nvidia
display drivers.  Both worked properly doing the usual stuff for many hours
(WSPR, Audacity recording, LadyHeather in Wine).

Later I went back to the Noveau based HD to do some stuff and Noveau
spazzed out after about a half hour.

I haven't checked server functions but other than Anaconda it seems
the cow may be able to give milk.
