What do you mean?
- the resolution while installing
- or the resolution once the just installed system has booted?

Care to attach a screenshot?

Hello Thierry,

The resolution while installing...

Is not easy to make a screenshoot, in installing mode....

Same problem like:

http://blog.mageia.org/fr/

"Les tests de correctifs sont en cours, nous avons réalisé une nouvelle diffusion dâISO en interne pour tests et vérification de la situation de certains bogues de lâinstalleur, tels que lâapparition de boutons en dehors de lâécran à lâétape du partitionnement dans certaines langues"

But not only for the partitionnement...

Regards,

Sébastien B.

The installer uses the generic fbdev or vesa drivers and with a resolution of either 1024x768 in the usual case.
As for the off window bug, this has already been fixed on March 17th in drakx-installer-stage2-17.75
