Description Mike Latimer 2008-11-04 16:08:43 UTC
During the installation of openSUSE 11.1 Beta4, on a Dell Latitide D620, the font used for dialog boxes in the Expert Partitioning tool is not visible.

This problem can be seen when specifying the mount point for an existing partition. When the drop-down box is accessed, you can see the full list of default mount points. However, after selecting one, the text in the selection box is not visible. This is also true if you click in the selection box field and manually type a mount point location. There are other areas in the same tool that will likely have the same problem.

To duplicate this problem, I performed a graphical-based installation from the beta4 DVD. The native resolution of my latop screen is 1440x900, but I selected 1024x768 for the resolution at the GRUB prompt.
