Not sure.
That's what I thought as well when I first saw the posting, but before suggesting to drop the priority, I tried it myself. Even in low priority, the package configuration never asks for screen resolution, color depth etc. With low priority, here's the list of settings I get: - video driver - video card name - bus name - video memory - use fb [y/N] - autodetect kbd layout [y/N] - kbd layout - XKB rule - kbd model - kbd variant - kbd options - mouse protocol - emulate 3rd button [y/N] - list of modules to load - write Files section [Y/n] and that's it... Normally the screen settings were after mouse and before module loading if i'm not mistaken. Unfortunately I don't have any suggestions as to what might be wrong.
