My mistake.
Somehow I thought it happens during installation.
Switch to the VESA driver and see if it helps.
(Edit the command line inside grub, adding the number "3". This will give you a text only boot. Edit the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file and replace the ati/radeon driver in Drivers with "vesa". "init 5" to switch back to a normal X boot)
