Description of Problem: If I notice I did chose a not suitable video card, it's too late to change Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 7.2 How Reproducible: run installer Steps to Reproduce: 1. choose a video card that is not obviously the right one; everything works fine though 2. when coming to the point where screen settings are tried, it might appear that it doesn't work that well on high resolutions 3. Actual Results: you can't try another video card Expected Results: it should be possible to change video card at this point, and then try again Additional Information:
If testing the video card fails, the test should fall back and let you pick a new card. What kind of video card do you have and what selection did you pick?
Well, I really don't have a problem with this. But I did in Mandrake, only there I had the ability to change. The difference could be only a matter of choosing colour depth.
I'm trying to understand what the problem is that you are seeing. What behavior is it that you'd like changed?
Well, it might be so that I tentatively choose a video card & settings, and it all works fine in the installer. But then when you come to the point where you should test the graphics, there might show up problems, even so that the screen is not legible at all. It might just be a matter of switching from 24 bit to 16 bot colours. But then it's not possible to change the configuration. It should be possible to change a 2nd time.
Hmmm, this works for me. When I test a resolution that the card or monitor can't do (or if the resolution is too high or low), it should time out after 10 seconds and the video card selection screen should reappear. Even if the test screen is illegible, it should disappear after ten seconds. Is this different than the behavior that you are seeing?
Oh, I must have missed that out then. I thought it wasn't possible to change video card at that stage. Closing this bug.
