From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.2) Gecko/20040909 Description of problem: When installing using a remote display, the installer will probe the local graphics card and mouse. If you don't have a mouse, it will prompt you to specify a mouse manually or use text only mode. It will then ignore the selection and correctly open a remote display. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 0. Remove the mouse from the system. 1. Boot from CD 1 2. Type "linux askmethod display=remoteworkstation:0" 3. Follow the prompts to find nfs mounted CD isos. 4. Anaconda starts Actual Results: Complains that no mouse was detected and prompts you to specify one or use text mode. Expected Results: Doesn't bother probing X or for a mouse. Additional info:
Changed so we don't prompt for mouse type on remote display. We still have to probe so that we have the information later for setting up X on the installed system.
Closing out. Please reopen if the problem is still present in recent code.
