Hi Ezequiel, Thanks for your report. With which exact iso did this happen? Would you like to become a QA ISO-tester, to see whether this issue still exists with the Mageia 7 beta 1 ISOs that are currently being tested? If so, please read https://wiki.mageia.org/en/QA_ISO_testers and take their the mentioned steps. There are 7beta1 Live ISOs and 7beta1 classical ISOs. Setting "Version:" to cauldron, because this cannot be fixed in already released ISOs Putting "(MGA6) or (MGA6.1)" on the whiteboard, to indicate in which version this issue was last seen.

Hello Marja, I tried with Mageia-6-x86_64-DVD Classic Install DVD, Mageia-6.1-netinstall-nonfree-x86_64, and the screen got scrambled. I could not install mageia with this. With Mageia-6.1-LiveDVD-Plasma-x86_64-DVD.iso (from a USB Key) this is what I got: - Boot Mageia 6.1 Live: Boots great!! - Boot Mageia 6.1 Live + use non-free video drivers: I got a scrambled screen, pressing the ESC key show me text saying it's Detecting Hardware and it boots fine. - Install Mageia 6.1 Live -- No scramble screen but in never got to install (Seems to be Freezen) I waited about 7 minutes. - Install Mageia 6.1 Live + use non-free video drivers - I got a scrambled screen, pressing the ESC key shows me text saying it's Detecting Hardware and it installs fine. Thank You Marja, And Yes I would love to test the 7beta1 ISOs

Hello Ezequiel, is this bug still valid with the latest Mageia-7 ISOs?
CC: (none) => mageia
No response, and Mageia 6 is EOL, so closing as old.
