Re: setup.exe beta (testing needed - really!)

A new release of setup.exe is imminent. There are many changes, and to
reduce problems, feedback from YOU, is needed.

I've been using it for a couple of days on a WinXP SP1 box and a Win2K SP2 box. No problems on either.


However, one of the installations has had a long-standing problem (across all the setup versions I've tried), that I'd love to track down.

I've always excluded (Skip) all XFree86 packages. One of the boxes understands and remembers this - it doesn't auto-select any of the XFree86 packages on subsequent runs of setup, but the other doesn't remember this, and always insists on selecting a number of the XFree86 packages, which I then have to Skip by hand each time.

Any hint on where to look (config files, download area, registry, ...) to figure out why this is happening?

Thx,
