(In reply to comment #0) > Number of created screens does not match number of detected devices. > Configuration failed. And what is the real number (and character) of the really attached devices? Also, are you running this into a virtual machine? Thank you for helping to make Fedora better These questions are all answered in the hardware information texts that were attached with the original report. For brevity: Real hardware. Single display adapter, single monitor. An interesting note: Debian 6.x is showing the same behavior, so this is likely an upstream bug? I do not have Fedora installed currently so I cannot confirm this, but in the case of Debian it DID generate a configuration file despite that output, and with a few tweaks it was usable. This message is a notice that Fedora 15 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 15. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version' of '15' have been closed as WONTFIX. (Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.) Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were unable to fix it before Fedora 15 reached 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, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that version of Fedora. 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.
