Description Andrea Borgia 2000-08-27 16:14:07 EDT

How to reproduce: setup 6.2, use Xconfigurator to setup a valid config and confirm you have only your driver installed.
Then, do an upgrade and choose to customize the list: all X drivers save S3, S3V, VGA16 and W32 are selected.
(if you don't customize, you end up with all those selected being installed)

Comment 1 Michael Fulbright 2000-08-29 12:13:34 EDT

Please reproduce Brock.

Comment 3 Michael Fulbright 2000-10-24 12:15:14 EDT

This is caused by how the XFree86 packages were built for the 7.0 product.

We will have to revisit this issue in the next release.

Comment 4 Glen Foster 2001-01-11 16:11:31 EST

This defect is considered MUST-FIX for Florence Gold release

Comment 5 Glen Foster 2001-01-24 19:44:20 EST

This defect has been re-classified as MUST-FIX for Florence Release-Candidate #1

Comment 6 Erik Troan 2001-02-08 19:51:34 EST

fixed in rpm CVS

Comment 7 Brock Organ 2001-02-12 14:53:36 EST

verified fix ... in a test upgrade, only 2 of the umpteen X Servers were
installed instead of all of them ... This should improve things ...
