Actual Results: option --set-resolution not recognized Usage: redhat-config-xfree86 [OPTIONS] Options: -h, --help display this help and exit -v, --verbose display what the program is doing more verbosely -o, --output= the filename of the config file to be output --reconfig don't base configuration on existing config files --noui don't show the gui, implicit when using --set options --forceui force the ui to be shown, needed when using --set options to change some setting, but you still want to show the ui --set-<key>= change the value of a specific configuration key. currently supported keys are: resolution the screen resolution used depth the color depth in bits most drivers support 8, 15, 16 and 24 driver the graphics card driver to use card the graphics card description to use e.g. 'ATI Radeon (generic)' vsync monitor vertical sync rates allowed (in Hz) hsync monitor horizontal sync rates allowed (in kHz) videoram the amount of videoram in kilobytes, 0 means probe Expected Results: it should start proceeding to configuration and set my resolution correctly Additional info: after some quick analysation on the python code of xconf.py located at /usr/share/redhat-config-xfree86 in line 1538: where the getopt arguments are declared there is a comma missing after set-card= and set-resolution :) which makes both of these options not working simple typo error. may be the program is not tested fully enough!?
It was a silly bug introduced in the last second. It's been fixed in cvs, and the next release 0.6.8 will have the fix when it reaches rawhide (soon).
