1793 (regression introduced on 2007-11-26) (#37722)
1794 - install linuxwacom if needed
1795 - load disk/ide before disk/scsi, or else sata_sis may be loaded for a
1796 SATA controller and trigger pata_sis loading before sis5513 is loaded,
1797 which would defeat an eventual alias to sis5513 for a PATA controller
1798 - cpufreq:

1800 (family 6 model 11, for example Toshiba Portégé 3500)

1828
1829 - 2008.1 beta2 logo

1847 - fix handling LVM VGs with "-" in the name (#37267)
1848 - call X with -nolisten tcp to avoid "security" issues (#18320)

1850 - do not propose ext4dev filesystem during install (#37157)
1851
1852 Version 10.6.8 - 24 January 2008
1853
1854 - 2008.1 beta1 logo
1855 - look for LVM PV on non partitioned disk before looking for DOS

1868 - do not sort languages in "choose language" step in graphical mode, since the

1870 sort on Spanish )
1871
1872 Version 10.6.3 - 9 January 2008, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux
1873

1886 that we can access main32 on x86_64
1887 - do not rebuild rpmdb if it is ok
1888 (will workaround #32547) (need perl-URPM 3.01)

1890 - adjust Uzbek locale (cf locales-uz change)
1891 - sort languages in "choose language" step in text mode
1892 - diskdrake:

1902 - use xkb instead of xmodmap
1903 - save bootloader on MBR when calling grub/install.sh, and restore it before
1904 calling it again (#35255) (ie implement "lilo -u" for grub)

1906 keymaps, not installer simplified (?) .bkmap (#35376)
1907 - fix wrongly detecting some devices as laptop specific (#35759)

1921 - partitioning wizard: ensure existing_part and resize_fat are proposed before
1922 wipe_drive
1923 - in case of ftp/http media, we select basesystem before doing
1924 bestKernelPackage so we must ensure the choice callback selects the good
1925 kernel (reported by Thomas Spuhler on cooker mailing list)
1926 - do propose "Suisse" after selecting french language (#34675)
1927 - use time() to know when to timeout (when launching installer X server)
1928 since the loop may be slower than 1 second (xf86misc::main::Xtest takes time
1929 on a failing X server on i810). Also print a message telling user to wait
1930 after 8 seconds.

1943 Version 10.4.233 - 4 October 2007, by Pascal "Pixel" Rigaux
1944
1945 - use /dev/cdrom in fstab, but do not write corresponding udev rule

1949 Version 10.4.232 - 4 October 2007, by Olivier "blino" Blin
