system-config-display *does* run on my other (very similar) system with just one monitor. Same radeonhd driven card, same board. Started up with the 2nd monitor disconnected I get the same error. I have reproduced this error on my system (only with one screen) by editing the xorg.conf. I copied the monitor0 section and deleted the line with ModelName. Now I get this error message. Can you check the monitor section in your xorg.conf? I hope my comment will help. hi all, i am using fedora 9 and recently configured dual head using xrandr. the following is my xorg.conf: http://pastebin.com/m79a60c01 i am also getting the same error, when tried 'system-config-display'... what could be the problem? This message is a reminder that Fedora 8 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 8. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '8'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 8's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 8 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping What info do you need to fix this bug? We are entering the fedora 10 era... Just whether you are able to reproduce the issue with F9, F10 or Rawhide. My dual screen machine is down at the moment but I'll try to resurrect it this weekend and check this issue. Sorry need new parts to revive the dual screen system. Can take a few days. System is back up again. Update to F10 is on the way. When finished I'll do the test. Created attachment 326134 [details]
