Fedora-19-Alpha-TC1-x86_64-netinst.iso

I try to install Fedora-19-Alpha-TC1-x86_64-netinst.iso in qemu.

Command line to start qemu is:

ionice -c 3 qemu-kvm -enable-kvm -m 2048M -smp 4 -drive file=./Fedora-19-Alpha-TC1-x86_64-netinst.iso.qcow2,index=0,media=disk,cache=unsafe -localtime -serial file:/tmp/qemu-Fedora-19-Alpha-TC1-x86_64-netinst.iso.qcow2-output.log -name Fedora-19-Alpha-TC1-x86_64-netinst.iso.qcow2 -cdrom /local/mfabian/iso/Fedora-19-Alpha-TC1/Fedora-19-Alpha-TC1-x86_64-netinst.iso -boot c -vga std -display vnc=:4 -net nic -net user,hostname=Fedora-19-Alpha-TC1-x86_64-netinst.iso.qcow2,hostfwd=tcp::5560-:22 -monitor stdio -usb

On the first screen I select some language and check the box at the bottom
left which says:

  “[✓]   Set keyboard to default layout for selected language.”

Then click the button  at the bottom right to proceed to the next
screen. There, click the keyboard setup on the top right.

The keyboard setup dialog appears.

When the selected language in the first dialog
was “German (Germany)” or “German (Switzerland)”
the keyboard dialog appears shifted to the top right.
This can be seen  in the attached screen shot on the top left
and top right. This is *always* reproducible.

When the selected language in the first dialog was Danish or
Hungarian, no such problem occurs. This can be seen in the attached
screen shot on the bottom left and bottom right.  There is also no
problem for Portuguese, Japanese, Czech, French, ...

I did not try all languages, but so far I could find this
problem only for German.

Somehow this looks a bit similar to me to bug#920657

Comment 2 Mike FABIAN 2013-03-26 05:27:48 UTC
Same in Fedora-19-Alpha-TC2-x86_64-netinst.iso

Comment 3 Chris Lumens 2013-03-26 14:59:28 UTC
I think this is due to incorrect word wrapping on the label telling you how to change keyboard layouts.  Usually when the screen gets shifted like this, that's what is at fault.

Which label?

So you say it has to do with the translation?

Can’t this be made a bit more robust against word wrapping problems?

Works in Fedora-19-Alpha-TC4-x86_64-netinst.iso.

Comment 6 Adam Williamson 2013-05-12 23:29:51 UTC
Further confirmed in 19 Beta TC4. Let's close this.
