This looks like a duplicate of 951000, can you please check if xorg-x11-drv-qxl-0.1.0-6.el6 works for you?

The attached config snippet works again with the new qxl driver.
"Xorg -configure" still doesn't work though.

Did Xorg -configure work in a previous version? if so, which one?

Thanks,
Alon

I remember to have used this, so it must have worked in the past.
Don't remember the exact version though.
I suspect the single-qxl-card-multihead merge broke it.

Comment 7 Alon Levy 2013-08-27 16:39:38 UTC
I'm closing this bug as a duplicate of 951000 since the main complaint, "configuration via xorg.conf stopped working" is fixed. I'll create a new bug via clone for the regression of "Xorg -configure" stopped working, if someone thinks it should be a blocker, then please set flags accordingly.
