Description Tim Fechtner 2006-04-25 14:22:32 UTC

Doing a new installation, the licence agreement is shown. When installing in spanish, letters like é or á are not shown, instead there are displayed two rectangles formed of little points.

I've installed RC2 on two computers, but this occured only one time.

Exactly at which time did you see the mangled Spanish? Just in the second dialog after you selected the language?
(It works for me with RC2).

Badly displayed is only the text of the licence agreement. Everything other (including yast itself which is displaying spanish characters correctly while showing the licence text badly) works fine.

(I tried to make a screenshot with the "print" key. Where have I to save the screenshot and where can I access him after the installtion?)

Maybe. How I said: I tried RC2 on two computers, but only on one computer, this occured. On the same computer occured also Bug 169160.

I'm closing it as worksforme as I can't reproduce it. Let's hope it was caused as a side-effect of bug 169160.

Comment 4 Tim Fechtner 2006-05-22 08:26:34 UTC

Sorry, not a side-effect of bug 169160.

Doing an installation with final DVD-64bit, it occures also. This time I've made a screenshot and saved the log files.

Reopening.

Maybe the licence text is broken for some architectures? Or maybe for different architecture, the correct fonts are not present? Rudi, could you check the media?

Comment 8 Tim Fechtner 2006-05-22 11:47:37 UTC

I had tested it with rc2 32 bit on 32 bit computer, with rc2 32 bit on 64 bit computer and with final 64 bit on 64 bit computer.

Comment 9 Ruediger Oertel 2006-05-22 22:51:38 UTC

any hint's on which of the attempts produced the problem ?

Comment 10 Ruediger Oertel 2007-09-14 10:48:49 UTC
