From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8) Gecko/20060103 Fedora/1.5-4 Firefox/1.5 Description of problem: When installing in text mode all of the text seems to be slightly shifted from when it redraws boxes/windows/text etc. Seems as though a screen will get drawn once correctly, but then is redrawn "shifted". Also seeing some ascii chars > 128 where there shouldn't be. This is only seen when using "linux text". There is no problem with using "linux rescue" mode. It's still possible to move around and attempt an install (although VERY confusing), except I'm still getting exceptions even if I don't deselect packages. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): anaconda-10.91.2-1.x86_64.rpm How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Boot from DVD 2.linux text 3. Actual Results: garbled text Expected Results: ungarbled text. Additional info: I've seen this since FC5t1, just finally get around to reporting it now.
FYI - I can't install in graphics mode due to bug#175020 which is an X11 bug.
What language are you using for installation?
English (default)

I have the same problem with FC5t2. I think it reverts back to text install because I don't have sufficient memory? (192M).
We probably need to do the nl_langinfo stubbing in stubs/unicode-lite.c that I had to add to loader2/wcstubs.c
Just to mention I don't get this screen garbling on a serial console, but do get it on a vgaconsole ...
We've fixed this in rawhide.
