Mmm, it work perfectly for me and others. Check if you have this in
your debconf/FAIBASE file and that your machine belongs to this class.

debconf/FAIBASE: xserver-xorg    xserver-xorg/autodetect_video_card      boolean true

You may define the driver by using this debconf data:

xserver-xorg    xserver-xorg/config/device/driver       select  mga
