1762 (regression introduced on 2007-11-26) (#37722)
1763 - install linuxwacom if needed
1764 - load disk/ide before disk/scsi, or else sata_sis may be loaded for a
1765 SATA controller and trigger pata_sis loading before sis5513 is loaded,
1766 which would defeat an eventual alias to sis5513 for a PATA controller
1767 - cpufreq:

1769 (family 6 model 11, for example Toshiba Portégé 3500)

1797
1798 - 2008.1 beta2 logo

1816 - fix handling LVM VGs with "-" in the name (#37267)

1837 - do not sort languages in "choose language" step in graphical mode, since the

1839 sort on Spanish )
1840
1841 Version 10.6.3 - 9 January 2008, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux
1842

1854 o just like stage1, handle <root of distrib> ending with current arch() so
1855 that we can access main32 on x86_64
1856 - do not rebuild rpmdb if it is ok
1857 (will workaround #32547) (need perl-URPM 3.01)

1859 - adjust Uzbek locale (cf locales-uz change)
1860 - sort languages in "choose language" step in text mode
1861 - diskdrake:
1862 o drop "Undo", "Restore partition table", "Save partition table"

1871 - use xkb instead of xmodmap
1872 - save bootloader on MBR when calling grub/install.sh, and restore it before
1873 calling it again (#35255) (ie implement "lilo -u" for grub)

1875 keymaps, not installer simplified (?) .bkmap (#35376)
1876 - fix wrongly detecting some devices as laptop specific (#35759)

1890 - partitioning wizard: ensure existing_part and resize_fat are proposed before
1891 wipe_drive
1892 - in case of ftp/http media, we select basesystem before doing
1893 bestKernelPackage so we must ensure the choice callback selects the good
1894 kernel (reported by Thomas Spuhler on cooker mailing list)
1895 - do propose "Suisse" after selecting french language (#34675)
1896 - use time() to know when to timeout (when launching installer X server)
1897 since the loop may be slower than 1 second (xf86misc::main::Xtest takes time
1898 on a failing X server on i810). Also print a message telling user to wait
1899 after 8 seconds.

1913
