Description Mike Chambers 2005-12-18 13:23:05 UTC

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20051215 Fedora/1.7.12-3

Description of problem:
Monitor is dected as a PTS03e5 instead of the KDS XF-9b.  I think I had opened one of these up, back in the day Fedora started or something similar, but I couldn't find the bug.  So I am going to attach the .inf file to it, if I can find it or get it.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Start install
2.
3.
  

Actual Results:  Monitor detected as PTS03e5

Expected Results:  Monitor detected as KDS XF-9b

Korea Data Systems; KDS XFlat XF-9b/XF-9c/XF-9e/XF-9p; PTS03E5; 30.0-98.0;
50.0-160.0


The PTS03e5 DDC id *is* a KDS XF-9b.

Where in the UI are you seeing it reported as PTS03e5?

Comment 2 Mike Chambers 2005-12-19 21:41:37 UTC

Rigth when the installer detects video/monitor (I believe before ananconda image
starts) and that is what is shown when firstboot comes up.

I can tell a big difference during the Gnome splash screen when switching from
the picked monitor, to the xf 9b one.  So there seems to be a difference or
something, at least.

Comment 3 Chris Lumens 2005-12-20 15:55:34 UTC

What are the results of running /usr/sbin/ddcprobe --monitor from a console?

Comment 4 Mike Chambers 2005-12-20 23:23:27 UTC

[root@scrappy ~]# /usr/sbin/ddcprobe --monitor

Monitor autoprobe results
ID: PTS03e5
Horizontal Sync (kHZ): 30-98
Vertical Sync (HZ)  : 50-160
Width (mm): 360
Height(mm): 260

Here is a URL to the monitor specs to compare against what the ID shows..

Comment 5 Chris Lumens 2005-12-21 16:29:13 UTC

It's being reported as PTS03e5 instead of KDS XF-9b because we're not getting
back any Name from kudzu.  I don't see what performance difference it should
make in rhpxl what it's called as long as the sync and sizes are right (the
syncs are very close to the specs listed on the website, at least).

Bill - any thoughts?

Comment 6 Bill Nottingham 2005-12-21 16:34:41 UTC

Hm, it *should* be trying to pull the monitor name from monitorsdb. I'll look at
the code.

Comment 7 Bill Nottingham 2005-12-22 01:46:41 UTC

What's the output of 'kudzu -p -b ddc'?

Comment 9 Mike Chambers 2005-12-22 03:53:48 UTC

I didn't change that, or at least not on purpose, so I changed it back to
needinfo, sorry.

Comment 10 Chris Lumens 2006-02-01 17:00:42 UTC

When you reply to a bug in the NEEDINFO state, it automatically gets set back to
ASSIGNED as a way of letting us know that the information has been supplied.
