Hi Mark,

Thanks for the patch, it is indeed needed :)

However, I don't like the wording. Instead of telling that it isn't 
normal, we don't tell what should be done neither what it will impact.
I guess something like "modesetting disabled, hw acceleration disabled" 
would be more suitable.

Speaking about that, I wonder how Nouveau would work on a CRTC-less card :D

Martin

PS: I have tested booting Arch with "nomodeset" and x-server loads VESA. 
Exactly the behaviour we are looking for :)
