Okay ... we'll try to be ready before Semtember 25. I think that should be possible since the list of pending items that we really want to get in is short. Please keep us in mind.
Nice to hear that RHEL4&5 have so few problem reports! Can we discuss with you at some point how to make doing a braille install of Fedora and RHEL easier? Ideally (as I see it, anyway) the user would just have to add brltty= (see our Guidelines page) on the installer command line. Even if he doesn't, perhaps the installer could probe for a USB-connected braille display. If the installer knows that braille is being used then a few additional things would help. One would be to write /etc/brltty.conf with the same parameters used during the install. Another would be to ensure that brltty is started in the new image before firstboot runs. Another might be to bring up the installed system in a text console rather than in X. Another thing that's a significant cause of problems in installers is serial port probing as, if a serially-connected braille display is being used, that has been known to often hang the dispaly. It'd be nice for an option to be added which would suppress that. There is noprobe, but that suppresses all probing. An alternative might be to skip over a serial port (any device, really) which is already open. -- Dave Mielke | 2213 Fox Crescent | I believe that the Bible is the Phone: 1-613-726-0014 | Ottawa, Ontario | Word of God.
