1761 (regression introduced on 2007-11-26) (#37722)
1762 - install linuxwacom if needed
1763 - load disk/ide before disk/scsi, or else sata_sis may be loaded for a
1764 SATA controller and trigger pata_sis loading before sis5513 is loaded,
1765 which would defeat an eventual alias to sis5513 for a PATA controller
1766 - cpufreq:

1768 (family 6 model 11, for example Toshiba Portégé 3500)

1796
1797 - 2008.1 beta2 logo

1836 - do not sort languages in "choose language" step in graphical mode, since the

1838 sort on Spanish )
1839
1840 Version 10.6.3 - 9 January 2008, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux
1841

1854 that we can access main32 on x86_64
1855 - do not rebuild rpmdb if it is ok
1856 (will workaround #32547) (need perl-URPM 3.01)

1858 - adjust Uzbek locale (cf locales-uz change)
1859 - sort languages in "choose language" step in text mode
1860 - diskdrake:
1861 o drop "Undo", "Restore partition table", "Save partition table"

1870 - use xkb instead of xmodmap
1871 - save bootloader on MBR when calling grub/install.sh, and restore it before
1872 calling it again (#35255) (ie implement "lilo -u" for grub)

1874 keymaps, not installer simplified (?) .bkmap (#35376)
1875 - fix wrongly detecting some devices as laptop specific (#35759)

1889 - partitioning wizard: ensure existing_part and resize_fat are proposed before
1890 wipe_drive
1891 - in case of ftp/http media, we select basesystem before doing
1892 bestKernelPackage so we must ensure the choice callback selects the good
1893 kernel (reported by Thomas Spuhler on cooker mailing list)
1894 - do propose "Suisse" after selecting french language (#34675)
1895 - use time() to know when to timeout (when launching installer X server)
1896 since the loop may be slower than 1 second (xf86misc::main::Xtest takes time
1897 on a failing X server on i810). Also print a message telling user to wait
1898 after 8 seconds.

1912
1913 - use /dev/cdrom in fstab, but do not write corresponding udev rule
