proper ddcprobe functional output
This information was gathered and is being reported as described in the initial
bug report post.
X doesn't use kudzu for its internal DDC code. Assigning to the X server. That may be so, but that doesn't change the fact that kudzu ddc monitor probing is broken, and, by extension /usr/sbin/ddcprobe, since it's a python wrapper for that subsystem. This auto-detection should be occurring well before X starts. Maybe we have two bugs here? It may be broken, but: - any X auto-monitor configuration is entirely separate - kudzu is more or less removed from all codepaths in Fedora 9, so it's unlikely that any changes will be backported there We don't use the output of ddcprobe for anything. And in F9, it no longer even exists. The more interesting question is why X didn't figure out the DDC info on its own. Can you attach your /var/log/Xorg.0.log please?

Thanks for helping out with this, guys. I really do appreciate it. Since I've recently added the static monitor definition to xorg.conf, I'm not exactly certain as to which Xorg log file would be best to submit to you (and I'm actually too tired to go look and figure that out right now). But, since all the log files in the rotation are only ~180K, you can have all 5 of them. Created attachment 304587 [details]

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 It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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 Fedora 8 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-01-07. Fedora 8 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
