 I recently downloaded the latest Haiku x86_64 (about a week ago) and
 discovered that, not only are other drivers causing the black screen issue
 (you have to set "fail safe video" in the Boot Options menu), but it is
 IMPOSSIBLE to remove them.

 Why?

 Because, when you try to remove them, Haiku tells you that you can't
 change a read only device.  Yet... I've installed Haiku to my hard drive
 partition.  It's not a CD image.  Its a raw image installed to my second
 hard drive partition!  So, why does it think it's on a read-only device?

 VESA works perfectly for me.  I'd set it to that, permanently, except that
 I can't remove the other drivers, to do so!
