1743 (regression introduced on 2007-11-26) (#37722)
1744 - install linuxwacom if needed
1745 - load disk/ide before disk/scsi, or else sata_sis may be loaded for a
1746 SATA controller and trigger pata_sis loading before sis5513 is loaded,
1747 which would defeat an eventual alias to sis5513 for a PATA controller
1748 - cpufreq:

1750 (family 6 model 11, for example Toshiba Portégé 3500)

1778
1779 - 2008.1 beta2 logo

1797 - fix handling LVM VGs with "-" in the name (#37267)
1798 - call X with -nolisten tcp to avoid "security" issues (#18320)
1799 (nb: this implies "xhost+" helper prog is not useful anymore)
1800 - do not propose ext4dev filesystem during install (#37157)
1801

1803

1818 - do not sort languages in "choose language" step in graphical mode, since the

1820 sort on Spanish )
1821
1822 Version 10.6.3 - 9 January 2008, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux
1823

1836 that we can access main32 on x86_64
1837 - do not rebuild rpmdb if it is ok
1838 (will workaround #32547) (need perl-URPM 3.01)

1840 - adjust Uzbek locale (cf locales-uz change)
1841 - sort languages in "choose language" step in text mode
1842 - diskdrake:
1843 o drop "Undo", "Restore partition table", "Save partition table"
1844 (preparing to switch to libparted)

1850 - restrict the proposed input-methods for each language

1852 - use xkb instead of xmodmap
1853 - save bootloader on MBR when calling grub/install.sh, and restore it before
1854 calling it again (#35255) (ie implement "lilo -u" for grub)

1856 keymaps, not installer simplified (?) .bkmap (#35376)
1857 - fix wrongly detecting some devices as laptop specific (#35759)

1871 - partitioning wizard: ensure existing_part and resize_fat are proposed before
1872 wipe_drive
1873 - in case of ftp/http media, we select basesystem before doing
1874 bestKernelPackage so we must ensure the choice callback selects the good
1875 kernel (reported by Thomas Spuhler on cooker mailing list)
1876 - do propose "Suisse" after selecting french language (#34675)
1877 - use time() to know when to timeout (when launching installer X server)
1878 since the loop may be slower than 1 second (xf86misc::main::Xtest takes time
1879 on a failing X server on i810). Also print a message telling user to wait
1880 after 8 seconds.

1892
1893 Version 10.4.233 - 4 October 2007, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux
1894
1895 - use /dev/cdrom in fstab, but do not write corresponding udev rule

1898
1899 Version 10.4.232 - 4 October 2007, by Olivier "blino" Blin
