Description Bernhard Wiedemann 2010-05-28 08:14:19 UTC

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; de; rv:1.9.2.3) Gecko/20100401 SUSE/3.6.3-1.2 Firefox/3.6.3

Since Build0632, isolinux on NET-install has display problems when selecting a HTTP-mirror - on KVM it shows characters as "*****". Build0631 was still OK.

http://www3.zq1.de/opensuse/video/openSUSE-NET-x86_64-Build0632a.ogv (on second 1-3)

also tried on real hardware (Athlon64, Geforce 6800) using isohybrid openSUSE-NET-x86_64-Build0635-Media.iso  and a USB-stick and it had even worse display corruption (a small rectangular part of the background drawn in the wrong place) and also no characters.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. qemu -cdrom openSUSE-NET-i586-Build0636-Media.iso
2. wait until animation is finished
3. press F4
4. press Return
5. press Backspace

Actual Results:  
all characters in current input field turn to asterisk (*). Booting does still work, if you get the value right without seeing it.

Expected Results:  
should show regular text "download.opensuse.or"
