Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 57175
post-install cannot modify /etc/X11/XF86Config-4
Last modified: 2007-04-18 12:38:35 EDT
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.78 [en] (X11; U; SunOS 5.8 sun4u) Description of problem: We need to install NVIDIA drivers in post-install. We must remove modules "GLcore" and "dri" and change the driver to "nvidia". To do that, I don't know of another way than directly modifying /etc/X11/XF86Config-4. Unfortunately this file does not yet exist when running post-install. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a kickstart post-install script that needs /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 2. Run a kickstart installation using this script Actual Results: The post-install script does not see /etc/X11/XF86Config-4. Actually it does not exist yet - xconfig is run later. Expected Results: The post-install should be able to modify the X11 configuration. Additional info:
As a workaround, you should be able to do skipx in the ks.cfg and then do what you want as far as X config in the %post
fixed in cvs
