All other problems seem to be fixed in snapshot-2, except for automatic detection of display resolution.
I'm not worried about "automatic detection," is there any way at all to tell the system to use more than 640x480 (800x600 on one system)? The nice tab for defining monitor resolution is gone, replaced with nothing I have found.
In the boot screen Press esc, then tab add resolution=1600x1200 as a boot option
and any other 'boot time kernel option' that may be relevant.
On radeon HD 36xx cards, too the radeon driver works 'out of box'
640x480 on a 1600x1200 or 1920x1080 monitor is very readable, probably from 100 yards away without optics. I've given up testing for the moment, nothing I really want to test runs, even in 800x600.
