           Product: Installation
         Component: Installation
           Summary: [9.1 beta 3] Installation with unidentified monitor
           Version: 1.779
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
        AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


The installation apparently uses som X server, which - at least with a monitor
that cannot be discovered automatically - defaults to VGA settings (640x480).
Some installation steps - most importantly manual disk partitioning - then have
buttons outside the visible box, and are effectively impossible.

Either the installation program must be usable at 640x480, or perhaps it could
be possible to use a key combination to change X screen resolution - to be able
to switch to VESA 800x600 or VESA 1024x768 with [Ctrl]-[Alt]-[+] or [-] if the
(hopefully) identified graphics card supports it (risking that the unidentified
monitor can handle it).
