imsttfb is the wrong fb for my system.

I can use ofonly and the splash screen (but the splash looks corrupted) or radeonfb (which is default) using live-nosplash.... but splash with radeonfb just leaves my screen white and unusable.

I'm seeing this problem with the exact same builds of libdrm, mesa (libGL and dri), ati x11 drivers, and Xorg server as I had on Fedora. I think this might be kernel related.

When I run apport-collect on the livecd, I get the following:
Please install the pachage "python-launchpadlib"

The apport-collect info is from my installed system. I can revert to ubunto-provided versions of libdrm, mesa, Xorg, and ati x11 driver if you want that data as well, but there is no change.

Also, this is not a G5 mac; this is a PowerBook G4.
