Description of problem:

during mageia2 install i'm not able to add guest user becouse xguest package is not available.
Comment 1 Manuel Hiebel 2012-05-23 12:22:37 CEST
yes the packages was removed in the last iso, because it was really buggy sometime with lxdm or gdm

Hi luca, after installation and if so desired, you can still install this package I believe from the online sources.
Comment 3 luca pedrielli 2012-05-24 09:34:44 CEST
yes, i know it. 

thanks.

but i think that a better solution was patch xguest ;-) or
remove guest user request from installer.

Ciao, Luca.

yes of courses but it was only discover sunday/monday so a little to late for 'big' change in the installer :/

This applies to Mga3 as well, certainly with the dual cd.
