Hi Susers !
Ubuntu team have just developed an excellent technology, that existed in Windows for many years before.
More specifically, the ability to recover from Graphics Adapter misconfigurations.
It is called: BulletProofX !
I would like to see this included into openSUSE (11.0 ?), and available as an addon for openSUSE 10.3.
Home Page: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BulletProofX
Ubuntu wiki talks about "Xorg7.3Integration"... will X.org 7.3 help with this? I understand that it will provide input and ouput hotplug, but can this help? What are the normal problems that make X unable to start, are just misconfigured "Device Section" or there are other things that can make it unable to start (even if we have EDID...)? And what is going Ubuntu to make exactly? They talk about a "GDM Failsafe Server that isn't supported by KDM"???
Have a look e.g. at Bug 304142. Such or similar may come up with new monitor device name strings and/or graphics chipsets anytime.

Well, that was a bug in SaX2. Even if we had something like BulletProofX a bug like that one would have the same consequences. Same problem for Ubuntu if their DisplayConfigGTK happens to have a similar bug. There is little we can do to avoid a problem like the one shown in that bug. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
