Barring that the mode select list could include both plain H#xV# as well as H#xV# with colors and/or refresh appendages. Comments: 1-scrap the following virtual anachronism (most now use Intel, ATI or NVidia): VGA Mode [ ] |V| 2-as long as installation kernel remains KMS disabled, installation cmdline vga= option(s) for video should not be prefilled here as they are currently. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
