'nomodeset' fixes my mouse and gets me 1024x768 (although it should be 
higher). The exception at the end starts:

anaconda 11.5.0.38 exception report
Traceback (most recent call first):
   File "/usr/lib/anaconda/storage/devices.py", line 2687, in eject
     log.arning("error ejecting cdrom %s: %s" % (device, e))
   File "/usr/lib/anaconda/installmethod.py", line 47, in doMethodComplete
     dev.eject()
   File "/usr/lib/anaconda/dispatch.py", line 25, in moveStep
     rc = stepFunc(self.anaconda)
   File "/usr/lib/anaconda/dispatch.py", line 128, in gotoNext
     self.moveStep()

Can't find it in Bugzilla yet (but there are a lot of exceptions to 
trawl through)...
