Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 144496
firstboot "Finish Setup" step cuts top edge of RHEL logo when subscription not activated
Last modified: 2013-09-02 02:03:51 EDT
# TREE rel-eng/RHEL4-re0106.0 # ARCH i386 This may just be an artifact of my display resolution (which according to /etc/rhgb/temp/XFree86.0.log I think is 800x600). The top of the "Red Hat Enterprise Linux" graphic is slightly cut off - this appears to be due to more text stating that my subscription could not be activated. This just looks ugly, is there a way to clean this up? Should the graphic stay centered horizontally+vertically and be slightly transparent in the background (with text on top)?

The most simple solution is to kill some of that blank space between paragraphs. Right now there's two blank lines between each one. Decreasing that to one blank line frees up a whole lot more space for the picture. This fix breaks down if there's much more text on the screen, but much more text would be a problem in itself. Adding this four character fix to the proposed list and committing on Rawhide.
This issue is on Red Hat Engineering's list of planned work items for the upcoming Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4.4 release. Engineering resources have been assigned and barring unforeseen circumstances, Red Hat intends to include this item in the 4.4 release.
