Weird display issue
I'm installing for the first time on a Dell 5000e (fedora and the display has a weird column of.... well, it's repeating the last part of the screen. It's making it VERY hard to see what's going on... this is all before I've even gone in to set anything up. It's still installing right now. Any ideas?


The other thing that complicates this is that I'm a linux noob.

See the attached file for a pic of what it's doing....

Has installation been completed? What does machine display on reboot?
If installation has not been completed then try text based installation.
