Beside this IMHO the script rx should work as get_version() returns 0
and therefore set XCONFIG to /etc/X11/xorg.conf if this file exist.
Stefan: The version output of the X server are a bit strange:
/suse/werner> X -version
X.Org X Server 1.5.2
Release Date: 10 October 2008
X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0
Build Operating System: openSUSE SUSE LINUX
Current Operating System: Linux boole 2.6.27.19-3.2-pae #1 SMP 2009-02-25 15:40:44 +0100 i686

Before reporting problems, check http://wiki.x.org
to make sure that you have the latest version.
Module Loader present
... this includes indeed a empty line. On an other system I see:
/suse/werner> X -version
X.Org X Server 1.6.5

X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0
Build Operating System: openSUSE SUSE LINUX

to make sure that you have the latest version.
... also an empty line and an other date format.

/etc/init.d/rx
Jet an other version of the rx script, please test out
Werner, on openSUSE 11.2 we no longer use any X config file (configuration is no longer necessary). Thus I'm afraid the logic in the script to detect if X is "configured" needs to be changed. Hmmm ... how does keyboard setup work without a configuration file? /etc/X11/xdm/keytable4hal creates /etc/hal/fdi/policy/20thirdparty/11-keymap.fdi from /etc/sysconfig/keyboard:KEYTABLE using /usr/share/sax/sysp/maps/Keyboard.map as mapping table. And of course you can switch keyboard layout on the fly anyway. How is this related to the rx script? Nothing ... nevertheless I'd like to know how the several setups found in old /etc/X11/xorg.conf now will work without /etc/X11/xorg.conf like hand tuned mode lines and special options of the NVidia driver. Hopefully you no longer need any hand tuned mode lines. The monitor should provide the right mode lines for you via DDC, which then are picked up by the driver. For special video driver options you still need a minimal xorg.conf. Something like this is sufficient Section "Device" Identifier "nvidia" Driver "nvidia" #Option "someoption" "yes" EndSection Using sax2 for this is overkill and usually more harm than benefit, but it's still available.

OK ... now with extended version check
Lars? Please can you test out the new script? Hi Werner! It works! Thanks for your help! submitted fixed version to factory |
