Description of problem: After the change of the configuration system-config-displays says: "Configuration was written to /etc/X11/xorg.conf, original configuration saved as /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup." But there is no backup file created. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): system-config-display-1.0.51-4.fc8 How reproducible: start s-c-d, change some settings, exit.
Who thinks no GUI is a low severity bug? A utility that renders the GUI useless, fails to save a backup and generally screws things up needs an instant fix - deletion from the distro springs to mind. Fedora 8 == no dual head. Who tested this?
