Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: 1.Attempt graphical install (fails) 2.Install in text mode to recover 3.Reboot after installation (X fails) Actual results: X will not run Expected results: X running normally Additional info: The following option statements were added to xorg.conf in the device section to correct the problem: --- Section "Device" Identifier "Videocard0" Driver "r128" VendorName "Videocard vendor" BoardName "ATI Rage 128 Mobility" Option "UseFBDev" "true" Option "DMAForXv" "true" Option "PanelWidth" "1024" Option "PanelHeight" "768" EndSection --- In addition, the 1024x768 resolution wasa missing from the screen section, and had to be added (1024x768 is the native resolution of the screen): --- Section "Screen" Identifier "Screen0" Device "Videocard0" Monitor "Monitor0" DefaultDepth 24 SubSection "Display" Viewport 0 0 Depth 16 Modes "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Viewport 0 0 Depth 24 Modes "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" EndSubSection EndSection
"system-config-display" is responsible for all X configuration, so this would be something that would need to be resolved in that component rather than in xorg-x11. Reassigning...
can you attach the broken X config, and a log from the failed startup?
Created attachment 126503 [details] Original - broken - xorg.conf
Created attachment 126506 [details] Xorg.setup.log I'm pretty sure this is the log from the broken xorg.conf. It's been 9 months since I opened the problem report and I don't remember the details anymore.
interesting. i don't have one of these handy to test, i'll see what i can come up with though.

I performed a clean install of FC6 on this system today, and the same problem exists. I attached the installation files, as well as the installed (broken) xorg.conf (as xorg.conf.original) and my modified xorg.conf (working).
Can you also attach your X startup logs (both from the original and modified xorg.conf)?
I'm sorry, I no longer have access to this equipment. Since no one else has added themselves as a CC to this bug, I assume it's of no interest. Closing.
