anaconda traceback for SavageIX (714 bytes, text/plain)

Description David Lawrence 2001-01-09 16:09:31 UTC
IBM Thinkpad T20 w/ SavageIX Mobility. Tracebacks occur when trying to load
second stage installer. This happens when I just hit enter at the boot:
prompt which causes the installer to use a default mode of 800x600x16 which
doesnt work on my machine for some reason. When I enter vga=791 then the
framebuffer server installs and graphical installer works.

When the installer fails to start the framebuffer and the native xserver it
should fall to text mode without generating tracebacks. I am attaching the
traceback output to this bug report.
