Can't config display on PS3
Last modified: 2008-04-11 15:06:08 EDT
Description of problem: Installing on PS3 (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=370761) Work around this with an updated videocard.py, one still can't configure the system (I had 480i display initially and now want to move to 1080p) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run 'system-config-display' on PS3 2. 3. Actual results: Python failure: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/system-config-display/xconf.py", line 381, in <module> dialog = xConfigDialog.XConfigDialog(hardware_state, xconfig, rhpxl.videocard.VideoCardInfo()) File "/usr/share/system-config-display/xConfigDialog.py", line 533, in __init__ self.state.recalc_mode() File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/rhpxl/xhwstate.py", line 387, in recalc_mode self.colordepth = availableDepth[-1] IndexError: list index out of range Expected results: Additional info:
Have you tried using ps3videomode to change the resolution? ps3videomode -v 5 will change it to 1080p In /etc/yaboot.conf you can append video=1080p to make the change permanent. system-config-display will not work for this... If you wanted system-config-display to work you'd probably need to submit a feature request to support it.
Even if this is the case, running 'system-config-display' (which is what happens with the menu item Sytem->Administration->Display) should not crash (if you use the menu, it just silently goes away...)
