The BIOS is ROM F.0A 02/16/2008 and Video BIOS 1471That's newer than the one I have; one wonders if they broke something...
Do you think you can try that version?
Can you use vesafb instead of vga16fb? That should be far more reliable.
vesafb is built into the Debian kernel, so presumably that works. I've no idea why debian-installer loads vga16fb.
