Description Frank-Michael Fischer 2007-08-24 06:23:05 UTC 
Created attachment 159609 [details]
syntax error in monitor section of SaX.log

with my gfxcard:

01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV280 [Radeon 9200 SE] (rev 01)
01:00.1 Display controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV280 [Radeon 9200 SE] (Secondary) (rev 01)

SaX2 produces during installation:

Section "Monitor"
  DisplaySize  338 270
  HorizSync    30-82
  Identifier   "Monitor[0]"
  ModelName    "CMC 17" AD"
  Option       "DPMS"
  VendorName   "CMO"
  VertRefresh  43-75
  UseModes     "Modes[0]"
EndSection

Due to the triple quotes in 'ModelName    "CMC 17" AD"' X11 does not start.

After installation SaX2 refuse to produce xorg.conf since it cannot start the server due to this syntax error.

Workaround: edit xorg.conf, delete the quote in the middle

Comment 3 Frank-Michael Fischer 2007-08-24 11:10:36 UTC 
Thanks! Fixed in Milestone? With the upcoming release? Or in factory already?
Comment 4 Marcus Schaefer 2007-08-24 11:15:26 UTC 
with the next beta, but I checked in a version to openSUSE, which is building _now_ :-)
Comment 5 Frank-Michael Fischer 2007-09-06 14:03:46 UTC 
Fixed with Beta3 now. Thanks!
