nvidia modules not available during install

Description

When installing 64studio, and nvidia graphics adapter is detected th nv module is loaded by default. The user should have a choice at install time because some newer nvidia cards do not work with the current nv module.

Perhaps the installer could include another dialog giving a choice based on the hardware detected.

The current workaround is to log in as single user mode (root) and change the xorg.conf manually to "vesa" and then to install the correct modules via synaptic.
