Does not install on HP Z800 with NVIDIA Quadro 4000

Asked by Mathieu Gibert

Just to mention that this distribution (as well as the "standard" ubuntu server version) cannot be installed on a HP Z800 with a NVIDIA Quadro 4000.
It seems that the video card is not well recognize as soon as the install goes to "non-text" style.
Is there a chance that this bug gets fixed? Can I do anything to bypass this graphical install part?
Thanks for your help (I don't want to install SUSE...)

This system was certrified with a Quadro FX 1800. May be an issue with the open source drivers.
