Description Suzanne Hillman 2006-03-07 19:42:31 UTC 
Description of problem:
When installing today's rawhide on a Fujitsu Lifebook P Series laptop, firstboot
is unable to autodetect the monitor type.

I would have expected the monitor type to be autodetected.

Except it isn't X that is responsible for installation monitor detection. ;o)
Comment 4 Bill Nottingham 2006-03-08 16:44:56 UTC 
If the monitor autoprobe fails, there's not much we can do; the display didn't
support the DDC probe, and it doesn't have EDIDs in ACPI we can read out of.
