Description Chris Ricker 2002-02-10 17:06:48 EST

With hampton beta1, Monitor Detection does not seem to work in either GUI or TUI
installer modes.  I've tried a MGA G400 + NEC MultiSync C500 and MGA G200 + AOC
Spectrum 7 GLR, and neither were detected.  RH 7.x does detect those monitors,
if I remember correctly.

This is a kudzu issue.

Comment 2 Chris Ricker 2002-02-11 21:54:48 EST

If it helps any, this broke for the AOC Spectrum 7GLR during the 7.2 beta cycle.
 The NEC worked on 7.2.

Full details of the AOC breakage are in #52092 which was closes as won't fix
since it was so late in the release cycle....

What happens if you run (as root) 'kudzu -p -b ddc' after install?

Comment 4 Chris Ricker 2002-02-16 11:02:43 EST

Here's the AOC - MGA G200 combo:

# kudzu -p -b ddc

class: VIDEO
bus: DDC
detached: 0
driver: unknown
desc: "Matrox MGA-G200"
mem: 8192

Comment 5 Chris Ricker 2002-02-18 19:04:28 EST

More monitor detection issues:  a ViewSonic E790B (which RH 7.2 detects
correctly, and which is in the monitor db) is detected as "DDC Probed Monitor -
E7916"
