Created attachment 154427 [details] anaconda.xlog
Created attachment 154429 [details] Correct X.log And let's try that again while I'm not being stupid, attached X.log file from a system where I didn't pass that parameter in question.. doh.
Almost certainly a radeon bug.
This isn't a regression from FC6, and we have a workaround, so I'm moving this off the blocker list. We may need a release note / CommonBugs entry about this for F7, though.
Since this has persisted since FC6 I'm setting this to block F8
Would be good to get a test of this with f8t2 or so. There's a new radeon driver that has a good chance of either making this work, or breaking it completely.
I tested with F8 test 2 and is anaconda no longer garbled, closing.
