Created attachment 1053888 [details] Patch to solve the problem Description of problem: VIDEO test results in FAIL because of Error: failed to obtain current screen resolution and color depth ! Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): redhat-certification-hardware-1.7.1-20150618.el7.noarch How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Kickstart installation of system under test 2. Register system in the web ui and run video test 3. Actual results: Test fails. Log message shows: Error: failed to obtain current screen resolution and color depth ! Expected results: Test should pass and get the correct resolution and color depth. Additional info: Problem seems to be in the call of xdpyinfo in video.py. Adding a few statements for debugging around that call shows that the xdpyinfo.run() throws an exception because of errrors. The error messages say "Unable to open display". This looks like there is no DISPLAY variable set in the context of video.py and so we need to submit a display parameter to xdpyinfo to work. I tried with adding "-display :0" and it worked. Patch is attached
