Hi,
My screen hangs each time I tried to install 8.2 Beta 3 during the install
packages phase.
The following is a verbatim of the screen that I see,
(--) FBDev: Frame buffer device: VESA VGA
(--) FBDev: Video memory: 4096K @ xe4000000
(--) FBDev: MMIO regs: 0K @ (nil)
(--) FBDev: Type 0 type_aux 0 bits_per_pixel 16
(--) FBDev: Hardware acceleration: None
(--) FBDev: No driver support for hardware acceleration
bpp = 16, depth = 16, BitsPerRGB = 6
(--) FBDev: Using cfb16 driver

I tried few times. Sometimes, I don't get this screen. It just hangs while
installing. I have the PNP BIOS off.
My motherboard is Legend QDI P6I440LX/DP. I see similar situations with
Linux 8.1. I solve the problem by using a different CDROM drive. I will try
to use a different CDROM drive. This problem didn't occur in 8.0. Please
help.
Regards,
Norman
