X works fine on my Dell Latitude laptop as long as it is not connected to 
Dell Port Replicator and Compaq V75 monitor.  Trying Xconfigurator 
produces same results, failing during X test while docked.  This same 
exact hardware configuration worked under RH 7.0 either docked or not.

Hardware:
Dell Latitude CPxH500
ATI Mobility M/P (according to Xconfigurator) Windows 98 SE says Mobility 
M1
Compaq V75 Monitor
8 MB Video RAM
128 MB RAM

The following text was taking from the bottom of /var/log/XFree86.9.log 
immediately after running a failed Xconfigurator while connected to the 
Port Replicator.  The first clue of a problem is "(WW) ATI(0): Mode pool 
is empty" towards the bottom.  I can provide the full text of XF86Config 
and XFree86.9.log for failing and working Xconfigurator runs if desired.

When reporting a problem related to a server crash, please send
the full server output, not just the last messages.
This can be found in the log file "/var/log/XFree86.9.log".
Please report problems to xfree86.



Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run Xconfigurator while connected to Dell Port Replicator w/ Compaq V75
2. Let it run X test
3. Quit after it fails to start X
	

Actual Results:  Fails every time

Expected Results:  The X test should have worked and the machine should be 
able to run X while connected to Port Replicator/Compaq V75 monitor.

Comment 1 Richard Barrass 2001-02-12 12:37:32 UTC
Hi,

Firstly, I am seeng the exact same problem on a numbner of Dell Lat CPx 700's
we have in the office connected to the port replicator C/Port II

However, during the install - the X installer does work fine while docked --
this includes running at 1024x768

Hope this helps

Comment 2 Gil Chilton 2001-02-28 14:37:59 UTC
Problem still exists in wolverine.

Comment 3 Mike A. Harris 2001-03-10 02:11:58 UTC
Please try the XFree86-4.0.2-12.1 release located at:
ftp://people.redhat.com/mharris/xfree86

This should fix the problem.

Comment 4 Need Real Name 2001-03-15 10:17:07 UTC
Hi
	having installed the packages from that directory we are still seeing the
problem, the bottom of the log is included below, again it is a dell latitude,
works fine out of the docker, but fails when it is in the docker.
