    Try switching to a console with STRG+ALT+Fx and after that back to X with
    STRG+ALT+F7. Dunno why, but it worked. some friends have had the same problem
    with the i386 version. In some cases it starts not with framebuffer but you
    can finish the installation. Hope it works for you too.
