Yast logs immediately after last failed attempt to start sax2

I have changed my monitor from 17" Philips to 19" Samsung (SyncMaster 203B). The native resolution is different, so I need to run Sax2 to reset my openSuse 10.3.

When I try to start Sax2 from the Yast environment, nothing starts up and the cursor, after a while, goes back to normal. I am attaching y2logs.

When I try to start Sax2 from the command line, using

sax2 -r

it pretends to do something, but no result.

It is possible that my problems are caused by a previous bug: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=344237, because my system is probably incompletely updated.

try to call

init 3
sax2

--> does this work ?
--> send the log file /var/log/SaX.log

Comment 3 Marian Kechlibar 2007-12-17 08:42:35 UTC

When I try to run init 3 and sax, I get the following output from sax:

Your current configuration will not be read inů
No X-server running. Will start own server if needed.
/usr/sbin/xcmd: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libsax.so.7: undefined symbol _ZTI11QTextStream

A flash of screen ... but nothing changes 

(heh, this last line reminds me of German band Blind Guardian's lyrics ... never mind)

*whoops* it seems something in your installation is broken.
the QTextStream symbol is part of the Qt3 library which is used
by libsax. I guess you installed/uninstalled something in this
field

you mentioned your system was incompletely updated. I'm pretty sure
this is the problem. To get sax2 working again I suggest to install
all sax2 and dependent packages again
