1754 (regression introduced on 2007-11-26) (#37722)
1755 - install linuxwacom if needed
1756 - load disk/ide before disk/scsi, or else sata_sis may be loaded for a
1757 SATA controller and trigger pata_sis loading before sis5513 is loaded,
1758 which would defeat an eventual alias to sis5513 for a PATA controller
1759 - cpufreq:

1761 (family 6 model 11, for example Toshiba Portégé 3500)

1789
1790 - 2008.1 beta2 logo

1808 - fix handling LVM VGs with "-" in the name (#37267)

1814

1829 - do not sort languages in "choose language" step in graphical mode, since the

1831 sort on Spanish )
1832
1833 Version 10.6.3 - 9 January 2008, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux
1834

1847 that we can access main32 on x86_64
1848 - do not rebuild rpmdb if it is ok
1849 (will workaround #32547) (need perl-URPM 3.01)

1851 - adjust Uzbek locale (cf locales-uz change)
1852 - sort languages in "choose language" step in text mode
1853 - diskdrake:
1854 o drop "Undo", "Restore partition table", "Save partition table"

1861 - restrict the proposed input-methods for each language

1863 - use xkb instead of xmodmap
1864 - save bootloader on MBR when calling grub/install.sh, and restore it before
1865 calling it again (#35255) (ie implement "lilo -u" for grub)

1867 keymaps, not installer simplified (?) .bkmap (#35376)
1868 - fix wrongly detecting some devices as laptop specific (#35759)

1882 - partitioning wizard: ensure existing_part and resize_fat are proposed before
1883 wipe_drive
1884 - in case of ftp/http media, we select basesystem before doing
1885 bestKernelPackage so we must ensure the choice callback selects the good
1886 kernel (reported by Thomas Spuhler on cooker mailing list)
1887 - do propose "Suisse" after selecting french language (#34675)
1888 - use time() to know when to timeout (when launching installer X server)
1889 since the loop may be slower than 1 second (xf86misc::main::Xtest takes time
1890 on a failing X server on i810). Also print a message telling user to wait
1891 after 8 seconds.

1904 Version 10.4.233 - 4 October 2007, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux
1905
1906 - use /dev/cdrom in fstab, but do not write corresponding udev rule

1909
1910 Version 10.4.232 - 4 October 2007, by Olivier "blino" Blin
