How about Leap ? Is it also fine to leave out "name version" by which the text is also truncated ?.
(In reply to Thorsten Kukuk from comment #11)
Leap is identical to SLES: you can jump between versions, and here timestamps don't help you to identify the Leap version.
IMHO it's not fine to leave out name+version anywhere as a user might go from one distribution to another so no need to make it any different -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Setting the boot_menu.width to 80% can see the full snapshot title at resolution 800x600.
+ boot_menu { left = 10% width = 80% top = 33% height = 34% ... }
Frederic, what do you think about the change to the branding package ? Thanks.
I'm fine with it. This will probably require some openQA needle update but that's ok. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
