Bypassed by adding nomodeset.
I've seen similar issues in the past and never been 100% sure how to
characterize them.
Does the screen resize issue you noted in
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=318084 occur on the
post-installed system?
Ive only seen this in Anaconda and this is the first time that the
menu is not in the middle of the screen.
I had similar issue early after F9 release when hooking my T61p
which has an resolution of 1920x1200 to my HDTV
which has a resolution of 1920x1080.
nv driver did not have the resoultion of 1920x1080 at that time.
( I'm guessing this is controlled by the driver here )
This was not that bad because driver set the output to 1920x1200
let's just say it did not stop me from playing my media.
( well first the driver try to put 1920x1920 to both screens )
What I did to bypass this issue was to lower the res to 1400x1050
which both the tv and the lcd have. problem solved.
Note this is not a problem today.
Restoring the resolution to the monitor if I remove
the laptop from the dock however is.
I've always been able until now to continue install
just with a big black background :)
I do believe that this is an resolution issue.
The highest resolution is supposed to be 1600x1200
This is an 15.4" wide lcd but xrandr output does not list 1600x1200
resolution ( 1680x1050 is the highest res and is set to that after install )
When you add the "nomodeset" kernel parameter, does X stretch to fill
the screen during install?
Yes, and I'm guessing that's because the res is 800x600 and "fits" the
15.4" wide
monitor and is listen in xrand output.
