Hi,
I'm not sure if this is a known bug. I've installed SipX twice now, and
upon booting the screen is completely garbled. I suspect a framebuffer or
something is being used for boot, but it doesn't like my hardware. Anyone
else experience this?

Realize you have not stated what version of sip and how you are
installing it. Is it sipx 4.4 or 4.6? Are you installing via RPM or
from ISO?
Typically it means your hardware has an issue with linux. If you know
what hardware you are using (we don't) and what version of sipx you
are installing
It's an ISO install, 4.6.
Yes, it could be an issue with my hardware and CentOS, however the issue is
that not all hardware is going to support framebuffers properly.
Regardless of whether the bug is in CentOS or the install scripts of the
sipxecs ISO, it is still an issue that there is no option
Well, you could use the RPM installation method and go that route... Then
you'd have full control over the installation.
Thanks,
Mike

It's a centos issue.
It's probably a resolution issue. it's still centos and your hardware
let me google that FOR you...

the answer lies in probably changing grub.conf to match what the
hardware might support...
example:
kernel
I'll download a minimal CentOS install now to try to help narrow down the
problem to CentOS or SipX. Thanks for pointing out the potential install
parameters, if X runs during the install (which it did) I would assume that
the framebuffer would be alright.
Tony: I am well aware of how to change
Okay, so I tried to CentOS 6.3 minimal install. The issue remains with a
normal install, however CentOS also has a low-end video mode, and that
install works just fine.
It might be worth considering, if simple enough, to add an option to SipX
to install CentOS in a low video mode. For now I can
