I've got an identical machine that I wanted to load Ubuntu onto - and
had the same issue.

Specifically, during install the screen goes to full-screen mode,
800x600, and the screen 'folds' over itself so to speak - and the
installation boxes do not fully view.

I downloaded the 8.10 live CD, and it did the same thing.

I then proceeded to install in safe-graphics mode and it displays as
desired, but in 800x600 mode but not using the entire screen...

Thought you might like to know. I've done a hardware test and will
upload the results shortly.
