On the installer command line:
xdriver=vesa
If you've already installed, boot into runlevel 3 and edit xorg.conf.
And yeah, G80 LVDS is broken, even upstream. I'm currently beating on
it, hopefully have a fix soon. F7 is broken because the nv driver
attempts to claim all G80 devices as belonging to nv, which turned out
to be a mistake.
