I have encountered another issue that may be related to low hardware screen resolution, which occurs during installation of EndlessOS (when booting from USB). During the installation process, the screen defaults to portrait mode and apparently cannot be changed to landscape mode until the OS is fully installed and boots from the hard drive. Therefore, any windows are temporarily limited to 768 horizontal pixels during installation. The installation “wizard” window does not resize correctly, and neither is it possible to move the window by clicking and holding on the title bar, even if an external mouse is connected. The “Previous” and “Next” buttons are located on opposite ends of the title bar, and only the “Previous” button is accessible, while the “Next” button is located off-screen. This effectively means that there is no way to click on the “Next” button to proceed with installation except by use of the tab and enter keys and some guesswork.
For me, none of the problems I have listed are “deal-breaking” in and of themselves. Most are temporary and/or can be resolved with workarounds. I don’t expect any fix or resolution in the near term. I have listed and described them only so that you are aware of these issues from a tablet user perspective.
I have attached a diagnostics file for your reference. eos-diagnostic-200613_224908_UTC 0530.txt (443.1 KB)
Lastly, the following error messages were displayed in the terminal right after “eos-diagnostics” command was issued, and diagnostics file was successfully created.
