... I was able to successfully complete the second stage of install, but alas Sax still does not work right. After the initial xorg.conf is written in stage 2, xorg does boot up but timing issues with multisyc CRT's still are there (scrambled video out upon first boot to desktop) and Sax still refuses to give a complete resolution settings. I no longer think this is a result of evdev but is a bug that just appeared after the evdev bug was cured with patching (although the left and right are reversed on tilt wheel with evdev).
The sax2 generated xorg (attachment xorg.conf.initialstage2) results in a scrambled screen because of timings.
This is a configuration for a 1600x1200 resolution.
Then when a reboot to init 3 is done and a sax2 -r is done it gives a xorg.conf file that is completely wrong in metamodes and subsequent runnings of sax2 changes no enteries nor writes a new xorg.conf file. (attachment xorg.conf.sax)
No Metamodes in there. Just Modelines for 1280x1024 and below. Default resolution is 1280x1024.
A handmade xorg.conf will work fine (attachment xorg.conf.works) but even that does not allow sax to recreate a new xorg.conf when ran and still does not allow proper resolution selection in sax2.
No resolution given at all in this config. [...] HorizSync 30.0 - 110.0 VertRefresh 50.0 - 150.0 You can be lucky you got the right resolution with acceptable timings. BTW, I don't know your preferred resolution. And there are no logfiles attached either. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
