Does /etc/X11/XF86Config still exist on your system? Yes it did, so I just removed it and tried again but the problem still exists. I went to run level 3, editted /etc/X11/xorg.conf and changed the driver from correct one "glint" to "ati" and then ran system-config-display and it still failed: [root@localhost X11]# system-config-display * ddcprobe returned bogus values: ID: None Name: None HorizSync: None VertSync: None Trying with card: 3Dlabs Permedia2 (generic) Error, cannot start X server. [root@localhost X11]# If I delete the xorg.conf file containing the bogus driver info then it works OK. Please retest this appears to be fixed for me using Fedora Core 3 test 1 system-config-display 1.0.17-1 Steps to reproduce: Shutdown X Change driver from ati to glint system-config-display It tries with config and then automatically tries using a fresh configuration which works. |
