Description of problem: When installing on a Dell Inspiron 8500 (laptop), my screen was not auto-detected. Its screen resolution is 1920x1200, but that was not an option under the list of LCD sizes. After booting, though, going to Start -> Preferences -> Screen Resolution listed 1920x1200, so it looks like anaconda is just missing this from its list of allowed values. How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. install and try to select 1920x1200 as your screen resolution

I am having this same problem on FC2 on a Dell Latitude D800. Display is 1920x1200 WUXGA LCD, but there is no option for that resolution for that resolution, even if I set the monitor to 1920x1200 generic LCD. The errata doesn't seem to apply to Fedora. I have hwdata-0.120-1
