Description mal 2000-08-04 03:15:11 UTC

Anaconda still does not setup X correctly
when the monitor type can not be determined.
I already posted a report about this at
http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=11701
the other people posted similar report about a year ego. 
The problem is still not fixed.
The fix is trivial:
edit file
xf86config.py
And replace one line (line# 140)
	Identifier "Generic Monitor"
to
	Identifier "Generic VGA Monitor"
It will work since then.

I think I've fixed this in CVS.
