I've committed a change that changes the default video mode for normal installs (using the newt frontend) to vga=788, which forces the VESA framebuffer. Tested on my own HP 2510p. The change should take effect in the next daily and weekly builds. Here's the commit log for the change: r60979 | fjp | 2009-10-10 14:01:55 +0200 (Sat, 10 Oct 2009) | 15 lines Change default video mode for i386/amd64 to vga=788 for the "newt" frontend This forces the framebuffer to VESA and will thereby solve problems reported on various HP notebooks with the vga16fb driver (#471505). It also increases the screen size (to 600x800, which is still quite conservative) and thus allows more information to be displayed. Note that dialogs should continue to be designed to work with 480x640 as other architectures may still use that as a default, and for network-console. vga=788 is the same video mode we use for the gtk frontend and as we've seen very few reports of that failing the change should be safe, but it is still somewhat experimental.

That question does not really make sense. The graphical installer is supported by default in cdebconf, so you don't need to do anything special in new udebs to have that supported. Just use the debconf protocol. You just need to make sure that you include rootskel-gtk and cdebconf-gtk-udeb (and use the correct boot parameters) in the D-I initrd when you build an image, which is all done by default when you use one of the "build_*-gtk" targets available for building an image from installer/build. The best general instructions for creating udebs and building D-I are in: http://d-i.alioth.debian.org/doc/internals/ Cheers, FJP -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Hello Frans Thank you for the fast response and the hint, where i can found the installer images. I have found the images at: - http://d-i.debian.org/daily-images/amd64/daily/cdrom/ for AMD64 - http://people.debian.org/~joeyh/d-i/images/daily/cdrom/ for i386 Regarding your question: I don't use the debian-cd package. Instead of debian-cd, i use my own scriptfile for creating the boot-cd. Tomorrow, i will test my new boot-cd with the d-i and the images from sid.

Overall, there are no real "show stoppers" yet. Earlier the same day, I did the same install on the same computer with "Lenny", so the difference is still fresh in my mind. "Squeeze is definitely faster! Up to checking the mirror site, it took only a few minutes with the text installer. Even though "Squeeze" installed more packages on this ancient machine, it used slightly less space on the hard drive, (about 1% on a 20G),and seemed to finish in about 60% of the time it took to load "Lenny". The final install seems to run a bit faster as well. I tried about a half-dozen different Distros on this computer, several of the *buntus, and Slackware types, but so far straight Debian seems to run the best on it. Next, I think I'll try Ehaile for streaming music, and Codine for videos.
