Public bug reported:
I did a server install of 20091209 CD on an Inspiron 531. After install,
system is not reachable via network.
The display has a flashing '.' on first console, switching to other consoles
displays a '.' in a different location, and hitting return moves the '.'.
Adding the command line option 'nomodeset' fixes the problem.
lspci -v shows the following video card:
