I also got the same failure and traceback during firstboot. Output from the terminal: [root@rawhide ~]# system-config-display Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/system-config-display/xconf.py", line 377, in ? dialog = xConfigDialog.XConfigDialog(hardware_state, xconfig, rhpl.videocard.VideoCardInfo()) File "/usr/share/system-config-display/xConfigDialog.py", line 552, in __init__ if card.driver[0:5] == "Card:": TypeError: unsubscriptable object [root@rawhide ~]# Jeff Spaleta also reports the same problem on actual hardware: https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-test-list/2005-September/msg00282.html Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.0.31-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Login as root 2. Open gnome-terminal from menu 3. Run system-config-display command Actual Results: Get the traceback mentioned above. Expected Results: Application should run! Additional info:
I broke it, I might as well fix it. Investigating.
Fixed in 1.0.32-1.
Re-opening... the error message has changed..but it still looks related. system-config-display-1.0.32-1 Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/system-config-display/xconf.py", line 376, in ? import xConfigDialog ImportError: No module named xConfigDialog
How are you running it in this case? From a text terminal, a X terminal, or from the menu?
This should be fixed in rawhide with python-2.4.1-13
