From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4.1) Gecko/20031014 Description of problem: After installing the latest kernel and updates via up2date (yum-rawhide), The Display Settings loads from the menu, but does not activate any changes. When run from a console window, this is the output: ]# redhat-config-xfree86 * ddcprobe returned bogus values: ID: None Name: None HorizSync: None VertSync: None [REM: after clicking on "ok" then this shows: --->] Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/redhat-config-xfree86/xConfigDialog.py", line 250, in ok self.xconfig.monitor.remove(1) IndexError: index out-of-bounds NOTE: The monitor cannot be probed since it is an older Viewsonic 17 ("non-DDC") model. AGP Jaton 3D video card (32 Mb) nVidia TNT chip. versions: kernel-2.4.22-1.2096.nptl XFree86-4.3.0-40 redhat-config-xfree86-0.9.13-1 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): redhat-config-xfree86-0.9.13-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Load the Display manager from the menu or from a root console 2. Change any setting: e.g. resolution, or depth. 3. Click OK Actual Results: Nothing happens. The gui interface just sits there. Expected Results: Message such indicating that changes will take effect, etc., should appear, with the choice of accepting or reverting to previous defaults. Additional info: After installing the new kernel, and as usual, I recomplied the nVidia drivers with the usual: export CC=gcc32. System is running at 1024 x 768 resolution, 24-bit. Display manager shows that the maximum availalble is 1600 x 1200, but selecting anything other (higher or lower) than 1024 x 768 has no effect ... not even changing the present resolution to a lower colour depth.
Doesn't work for me either, using an ATI 9000 Pro on a KDS monitor.
My monitor is a DDC probe capable Samsung Syncmaster 950p+. I ran into this when I noticed that my screen resolution is 1024x768 instead of 1280x1024. Upon running redhat-config-xfree86 in X it didn't do anything when clicking "OK". Hence I started it with option "--reconfig" from terminal (and later run-level 3) and got: /usr/share/redhat-config-xfree86/redhat-config-xfree86: line 2: 2161 Segmentation fault python2.2 /usr/share/redhat-config-xfree86/xconf.py $@ After re-running kudzu which I have had disabled, redhat-config-xfree86 starts at least, but for every click on "OK" it prints the same traceback as already posted: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/redhat-config-xfree86/xConfigDialog.py", line 250, in ok self.xconfig.monitor.remove(1) IndexError: index out-of-bounds > XFree86 Version 4.3.0 (Fedora Core 1: 4.3.0-40) > OS Kernel: Linux version 2.4.22-1.2097.nptl (bhcompile.redhat.com) > (gcc version 3.2.3 20030422 (Red Hat Linux 3.2.3-6)) #1 Fri Oct 17 15:18:02 > EDT 2003
Another similar scenario on an HP-ZE4201 notebook with Radeon IGP follows: * ddcprobe returned bogus values: ID: None Name: None HorizSync: None VertSync: None Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/redhat-config-xfree86/xconf.py", line 406, in ? dialog = xConfigDialog.XConfigDialog(hardware_state, xconfig, vc) File "usr/share/redhat-config-xfree86/xConfigDialog.py", line 397, in __init__ key, value = string.split(card.driver, ":") ValueError: unpack list of wrong size
For those that are seeing the following traceback: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/redhat-config-xfree86/xConfigDialog.py", line 250, in ok self.xconfig.monitor.remove(1) IndexError: index out-of-bounds this is a different bug than what was originally reported.
