Description Lars Bjorndal 2011-05-16 17:54:21 UTC
Description of problem:

In Fedora core 9, or something like that, I could use the command
'system-config-kickstart --generate filename.ks' to create a kickstart
file based on the current system settings and set of packages, without
having an X server running. Now, in Fedora 14, it doesn't work.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
2.8.6.1-1.fc14

How reproducible:
Allways

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Log in to a system that doesn't run X.
2. Run 'system-config-kickstart --generate file.ks'
  
Actual results:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/system-config-kickstart", line 28, in <module>
    from meh.ui.gui import GraphicalIntf
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/meh/ui/gui.py", line 21, in
  <module>
    import gtk
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/gtk-2.0/gtk/__init__.py",
  line 64, in <
module>
    _init()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/gtk-2.0/gtk/__init__.py",
  line 52, in _
init
    _gtk.init_check()
RuntimeError: could not open display

Expected results:

It should generate a kickstart file.
