Summary: Use better refresh rates in GUI installer
Product: Installation
Version: 1.847
Platform: PC
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: Installation

ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
The installer uses X on framebuffer device. It uses VESA VGA mode with
apparently the minimum refresh rate (60 Hz it seems).
Screen flickering is very visible and causes sore eyes for those who are
sensitive to low refresh rates.
My eyes start aching after a couple of minutes of manual package selection.
There definately should be a mechanism to detect monitor capabilities through
DDC (like with ddcprobe tool) and set the highest refresh rate that the monitor
supports.
