Start the installer on Solaris GNOME environment, and click the "Next" to enter/modify the installation directory. You can't see the directory name and you can enter any characters when you try to modify/enter the directory name. This problem exists on Solaris GNOME only. The installer works fine on Solaris CDE.
it is a color issue. the text (including cursor) fgcolor is white and bgcolor is light yellow. that cause it is hard to distinguish the text. when double-clicking on the text field and copy/paste to other windows, you can see the input string. i don't know if it depends on user's setting, but it is ok on cde with the same setting.
Fixed in 3.6 installer.
Verified in 200403021830 build on Solaris 9 x86, GNOME 2.0.
