Traceback Error details screenshot when tested through vnc.
Actual Results : TRACEBACK Error Given. Expected Results : Should not show TRACEBACK Error. This bug has been found when testing for Errata : RHBA-2006:0324 - firstboot bug fix update, Bug 164874 รข firstboot traceback on nonexistent ifcfg-eth1 in reconfig mode. arch : ppcp-4as.lab.boston.redhat.com in RHEL 4 U3 version. The Actual Results on Errata firstboot bug is different from the bug found at the time of testing. Actually in both cases Traceback error given, but the content of the error is different. Please see both the traceback error informations. The Teaceback Error information for this bug is attached with comment #1. And the traceback error information for firstboot bug is given with the Errata bug reference (bug id - 164874). Please see the both. Kicking to firstboot, as per the error message text. It looks like firstboot is failing to give s-c-d a layout to exist in. Okay, what's going on here is that ixf86config.readConfigFile returns None if there is no config file, and that is never getting checked anywhere in firstboot's display module. I'm going to commit a fix for that to Rawhide. system-config-display may want to check to make sure it's not getting None for self.xconfig too, just in case. |
