------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-10-27 01:57 ------- Would it be possible for the Mandrake installer to prompt for the VMWare tools during install? That would make installation under VMWare *so* much easier. -- Configure bugmail: http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ------- Reminder: ------- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: UNCONFIRMED creation_date: description: During the install of Mandrake 9.2 rc1, I am prompted to configure my graphical server. For the monitor, I choose 1024x768, 70 Hz For the X-server, I choose VMWare virtual video card Using X server version 4.3 resolution & color depth: 800x600, 24 bit I choose to test the configuration. I see the X server start up, and I am presented with the choice of saying whether or not I can see the message box that is on the screen. Everything looks normal, so I choose Yes. At this point, the screen becomes garbled. I can still almost make out what is on the screen; everything has turned green and has several random lines through it. The display is repeated twice in the VMWare window. The bottom half of the VMWare window just displays grey. I can move the mouse around, and as I move it over the buttons and option boxes, they paint on the screen, but they are still slightly garbled. If I continue installation anyway (I am only able to do this because of my familiarity with the Mandrake installer), everything returns to normal after the reboot.
