Comment 235 for bug 301958

Hello. I also have recently tried Mageia 4 beta (it's due out in February) on a laptop with Sis 671/771 graphic card and the display was correct out of the box from the live iso. The only problem were the drop-down menus, which appered to be scrambled and its contents, the options available, unreadable. I have seen on other laptops using vesa that this seems to be a semi-problem too, because you must click on the drop-down menu twice before you can read what is in it, but you can use them just with a little patience. Despite of it, with Mageia 4 this is not the case, apparently. The drop-down menus are not usable, at least from the live iso, even if you click on them several times and wait to be loaded. The doubt here is that you don't know if once the system is installed this would persist or not. If not, Mageia may be a good solution, or the solution, and it could be taken as an example. Anyone have tried it? Is there another distribution with a similar or better behaviour? Thanks.
