Description of problem:


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Mageia 2 Alpha 2 i586 Gnome live iso

[root@unknown001fd0b96f13 ~]# lspci -s 1:

How reproducible:

Always - on this machine.  I guess that it is ati video driver related.  
(It is worse on my nVidia machine, no "Universal Access Settings" at all.  
Separate bug report to follow.)

Hi,

This bug was filed against cauldron, but we do not have cauldron at the moment.

Please report whether this bug is still valid for Mageia 2.

Thanks :)

Cheers,
marja

It is very important for us to know whether this bug is still valid for Mageia 2 or for *current* cauldron.

Please tell us. If you don't reply, we'll have to close this bug as old.

Comment 4 Peter D 2012-07-14 08:15:33 CEST

Are there any cauldron live isos to test against?  

For the Mageia 2 release live CD:  

It mis-behaved on two machines (an old nVidia and an ATI X550) BUT both had to be run with the VESA driver which caused Gnome to run in legacy mode.  There was no universal access icon to click on.  

It behaved on a machine with an nVidia 8400 GS.  

It also behaved on full install (not live CD) on an ATI X550.  

So, I can't really test this until the first alpha live CDs of Mageia 3, but the problem has _probably_ gone away.

Comment 5 Marja Van Waes 2012-07-15 09:47:28 CEST

Thx for the feedback, Peter

I understand for two of the machines you had this issue with, you could not test whether the issue was still there with a live CD, because the universal access icon was missing, due to running legacy mode.

For another machine with a Live CD, the issue wasn't there, nor was it on a full install for one of the machines you couldn't test this for with the LiveCD.

So 2x fixed, 2x can't tell

Since no one else seems to suffer from this bug, I'll close as fixed.

Please reopen if you find this problem again. The Mageia 3 alpha 1 LiveCD is expected to be released on September 4th
