1722 (regression introduced on 2007-11-26) (#37722)
1723 - install linuxwacom if needed
1724 - load disk/ide before disk/scsi, or else sata_sis may be loaded for a
1725 SATA controller and trigger pata_sis loading before sis5513 is loaded,
1726 which would defeat an eventual alias to sis5513 for a PATA controller
1727 - cpufreq:

1729 (family 6 model 11, for example Toshiba Portégé 3500)

1757
1758 - 2008.1 beta2 logo

1776 - fix handling LVM VGs with "-" in the name (#37267)
1777 - call X with -nolisten tcp to avoid "security" issues (#18320)

1779 - do not propose ext4dev filesystem during install (#37157)
1780
1781 Version 10.6.8 - 24 January 2008
1782

1797 - do not sort languages in "choose language" step in graphical mode, since the

1799 sort on Spanish )
1800
1801 Version 10.6.3 - 9 January 2008, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux
1802

1815 that we can access main32 on x86_64
1816 - do not rebuild rpmdb if it is ok
1817 (will workaround #32547) (need perl-URPM 3.01)

1819 - adjust Uzbek locale (cf locales-uz change)
1820 - sort languages in "choose language" step in text mode
1821 - diskdrake:
1822 o drop "Undo", "Restore partition table", "Save partition table"

1831 - use xkb instead of xmodmap
1832 - save bootloader on MBR when calling grub/install.sh, and restore it before
1833 calling it again (#35255) (ie implement "lilo -u" for grub)
1834 - ensure /etc/sysconfig/console/default.kmap is generated with installed
1835 keymaps, not installer simplified (?) .bkmap (#35376)
1836 - fix wrongly detecting some devices as laptop specific (#35759)

1850 - partitioning wizard: ensure existing_part and resize_fat are proposed before
1851 wipe_drive
1852 - in case of ftp/http media, we select basesystem before doing
1853 bestKernelPackage so we must ensure the choice callback selects the good
1854 kernel (reported by Thomas Spuhler on cooker mailing list)
1855 - do propose "Suisse" after selecting french language (#34675)
1856 - use time() to know when to timeout (when launching installer X server)
1857 since the loop may be slower than 1 second (xf86misc::main::Xtest takes time
1858 on a failing X server on i810). Also print a message telling user to wait
1859 after 8 seconds.

1872 Version 10.4.233 - 4 October 2007, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux
1873
1874 - use /dev/cdrom in fstab, but do not write corresponding udev rule

1877
1878 Version 10.4.232 - 4 October 2007, by Olivier "blino" Blin
1879
