Description of problem: * Diskdrake and all gui's beyond are detached from the right hand and aligned to the left off centre for me (not for others as per parinux Etherpad notes: http://bn.parinux.org/p/mageia4beta2 * It does not happen when upgrading M31 -> M4, because diskdrake is skipped. Steps to Reproduce: On real hardware (***) 1. Choose install 2. Choose: custom disk partitioning (cannot try others for obvious reasons) 2. Choose: Expert mode 3. At this point the diskdrake gui detaches from the Installer screen and floats off centre to the hard left hand side of the screen. Screenshots to be attached. At this point tty1 shows: (runinstall2:390) Gtk-Critical **: gtk_widget_set_size_request: assertion 'width >= -1' failed ***) Hardware described as entry #3 at: https://wiki.mageia.org/en/QA_iso_hardware_list#Notebooks Reproducible: Steps to Reproduce:

Similar issue as of bug #11790: when toggled, the window size must change slightly and matchbox wrongly moves the window
Assignee: bugsquad => thierry.vignaudSummary: M4B2 (gtk2->3?) diskdrake gui detaches when toggling to expert mode and all others onwards => M4B2 diskdrake GUI moves when toggling to expert mode (and all others onwards)
Indeed it has been resized. The Gtk+ warning has nothing to do with this, it's displayed before. The problem seems locale dependant (eg it doesn't happens with French but it does with English)
For me this happens the first time the diskdrake partition window is displayed (i.e. before choosing custom partitioning). I suspect this is because I have a lot of partitions, so the window is too large to fit in the normal space.

I think it's timing related, because when I am testing in an automated fashion, it will happen some of the time, even though the test tool is behaving 100% the same way every time. I can reproduce this fairly consistently. I have an automated testing tool which is one way to generate it. See QA mailing list.

Created attachment 4761 [details] capture after diskdrake I have this on all step after diskdrake even without clicking advanced :/ I'm not sure we can release with this.

(In reply to Mageia Robot from comment #8) > if it's not enough, we will disable labels on partitions buttons again Please, just truncate like they were before. No leading/trailing dots. Just one letter is better than none.

Gtk3/Oxygen-gtk does not behave the same and prevent this.
Reporter, can you please check the behaviour in new Mageia 4 RC isos?
It is still happening, although not in 100% identical manner as at the time of my report. Question should rather be at this point: is it acceptable that it happens or not. I will not judge *that*. All I do say that it is unlike behaviour we saw before the report, so it was not expected then. Maybe we should live with it now ??
Also when switching from 800x600 to 1024x768 with vga=791 but it is _much_ better. (Anne, btw the f3 to switch this from gfxboot doesn't work)
