Description Aleksey Nogin 2002-10-01 02:10:05 UTC
When I boot the installer with display=xxx:y option and have anaconda running
with a remote DISPLAY, the various information windows (such as "Finding
packages to upgrade...", "Checking dependencies in packages selected for
installation..." and "Preparing to Install...") pop up in the center of the
screen as "always-on-top, no-windows-decorations" windows that are pretty hard
to get out of the way. Is it possible to make those windows be a little more
friendly and a little less annoying?

They should be a little bit more friendly now.
