Doesn't work for me - it gives a rather streaky sort of picture that while 
recognisable cannt be read from.  You haver to switch the vesa driver to get 
anything sensible - probably not a problem unless you were planning gaming.  
One consequence is that you"'ll need to do a  text install to be able to see 
what you are doing and then edit the XF86Config file afterwards.  Fiddly but 
not impossible
