BTW, according to SELinux rhgb is trying to read /etc/X11/XF86Config. I filed that as bug 121726. Did a fresh NFS install of rawhide/fc2t3: server + KDE/Gnome + development + graphical internet + multimedia + some additional tools. The configuration specified in the firstboot setup was written to /etc/X11/XF86Config, but X started with the default values in /etc/X11/xorg.conf. Copying /etc/X11/XF86Config over /etc/X11/xorg.conf gives the desired behavior. Attempting to reconfigure X from the Gnome "System Settings/Display" menu as root only gives resolution options of 640x480 or 800x600. (This is probably another bug - will file as such.) *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 121729 *** Changed to 'CLOSED' state since 'RESOLVED' has been deprecated. |
Description of problem: I just did a Test3 install. During firstboot --> display I changed my color depth to "millions" instead of "thousands". I noticed that I had both files: /etc/X11/XF86Config and /etc/X11/xorg.conf I don't know if that is intentional or not, but it's confusing at least. The contents did differ: --- /etc/X11/XF86Config 2004-04-26 09:23:09.000000000 -0600 +++ /etc/X11/xorg.conf 2004-04-26 02:00:59.000000000 -0600 @@ -1,4 +1,3 @@ - # XFree86 4 configuration created by pyxf86config Section "ServerLayout" @@ -9,13 +8,14 @@ EndSection Section "Files" - # RgbPath is the location of the RGB database.
