Description of problem: Sometimes I have the effect that after selecting the installation target disk(s) in anaconda, the disks are shown in a horizontally scrolled window, even if there are only 2 disks to manage. My screen is 1280x1024. In this case, if I select one of the disks and proceed to the partition editor, this editor is located too in a very tiny scrolled window (about 100x50). Because the scrollbars ar very short in such a small window, it's rather difficult to use the +/- editor. This window is located at the upper left corner of the anaconda window. Is seems this is a X11 problem with anaconda (probably, it has to do with my old video card: Nividia FX200). In most cases, this effect does not occur, and I can't say under which circumstances it occurs. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Not always!! Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:

Yeah I have rarely seen this before too. I'd love to fix it if I could figure out how to reproduce it.
But if I understand you correctly, you saw it at least one time?
I have seen it at least once, yes. I just don't know how to make it show up on demand. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 849211 ***
