https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=239695 Summary: hardware installation handles graphics card detection failure ungracefully Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: tilman@imap.cc QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Opensuse 10.2 Retail, Intel DQ965GF motherboard (on-board graphics not used), Matrox G550 PCIe graphics card, installation in graphics mode, German language selected. No problems up to and including network configuration, online update, and user setup. As SaX2 is unable to analyze the graphics configuration (separate issue), the page "Hardware-Konfiguration" ("Hardware Configuration") displays, under the heading "Grafikkarten" ("Graphics Cards"), the text: "FEHLER: Kein Vorschlag" ("ERROR: no proposal") Now clicking on the underlined heading "Graphics Cards" or selecting "Graphics Cards" from the dropdown button (is that the correct term?) "Ändern" ("Change") at the bottom of the page both produce a message box: "Klicken Sie zum Ändern auf die unterstrichene Einstellung." ("Click on the underlined heading to change.") Clicking "OK" in this message box only refreshes the "Hardware Configuration" page which still displays "no proposal" for "Graphics Cards". There is no way to actually do something about the underlying SaX2 problem. Instead, clicking on "Graphics Cards" or selecting it from the "Change" button should lead to a dialogue where the actual error messages from SaX2 can be viewed, additional parameters given to it as needed, etc. Note: This bug is *not* about SaX2's inability to detect that machine's graphics configuration unaided, but about the the "Hardware Configuration" dialogue's handling of the SaX2 failure. I'll attach y2logs directly. Looks to me like y2log lines 54871ff. (timestamp 2007-01-25 01:59:11) expose the problem.
