From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.0.10) Gecko/20070223 CentOS/1.5.0.10-0.1.el4.centos Firefox/1.5.0.10 Description of problem: When installing via Kickstart on a monitor that does not respond to automatic detection and configuration, I have tried to use the "monitor" keyword in the kickstart file. This results in the creation of /etc/X11/xorg.conf with no "monitor" section. This hardware installs correctly under CentOS 4 with the monitor information specified as arguments to the "xconfig" keyword in the kickstart file. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Specify monitor config in kickstart file as shown: monitor --noprobe --monitor="Digital 21 in. Color (FR-PCXAV-HA)" 2. Perform kickstart installation.
