This isn't necessarily a problem specific to your hardware, but rather our software's inability to probe digital displays. This is a duplicate of some other bug... but I have no idea where it is at the moment. Thank you Warren, I just confirmed that by installing another FC3T1 on Dell P360n with Dell 2001FP (Analog) LCD display and it DID detected correctly this time. Apparently, the anaconda or redhat/system-config-soundcard does not detect digital display for some unknown reason. Presumably, it doesn't support DDC. Could you confirm lack of ddc probe support by running: kudzu -p -b ddc as root and pasting the output here. Sorry for the late response. Here is the output: # kudzu -p -b ddc - class: VIDEO bus: DDC detached: 0 driver: unknown desc: "NVIDIA Corporation NV30 Board" mem: 131072 Thank you Thomas Chung OK it doesn't support DDC. Firstboot with system-config-display 1.0.18-2 (on route to rawhide) now has monitor selection back. Hopefully this will be enough to install a system with non-ddc probable monitors. Please test this when it's hit rawhide. Thank you Paul, I will let you know the test result. Thomas Chung I just installed system-config-display-1.0.18-2 but it still does not detect Dell 2001FP (Digital) # rpm -q system-config-display system-config-display-1.0.18-2 # kudzu -p -b ddc - class: VIDEO bus: DDC detached: 0 driver: unknown desc: "NVIDIA Corporation NV30 Board" mem: 131072 Note the fix is to enable monitor selection at firstboot, as you can always Configure Monitor in the hardware selection of s-c-display. We can't probe this monitor using ddc so that's the best we can do (enable setup at install). |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040625 Description of problem: During the firstboot, it failed to probe Dell 2001FP (digital) LCD Display. It was necessary to run system-config-display and choose "Dell 2001FP (digital) and select 1600x1200 resolution. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): system-config-display-1.0.16-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install a fresh FC3 Test 1 2. Follow Firstboot steps 3. Only options for Display resolution were 800x600 and 640x480 Actual Results: t was necessary to run system-config-display and choose "Dell 2001FP (digital) and select 1600x1200 resolution. Expected Results: It should have detected and probed Dell 2001FP (digital) correctly during the Firstboot steps. Additional info:
