Since Gentoo now supports X.org, Xautoconfig assumes the user is running XFree86. This enhancement adds a test to see if Xorg is installed or if it should continue to use XFree86. Depending on the installed system, it will create the configuration file for it. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.run Xautoconfig 2.without checking for Xorg, simply writes XF86Config 3.user must manually change XF86Config to xorg.conf Actual Results: Expected Results: Should check to see if Xorg is installed instead and write xorg.conf file automatically.
Created attachment 32895 [details, diff] Patch to check for xorg or Xfree86
Manually applied this patch for 2004.2 kde/gnome livecd.
Any chance of getting this patch into portage, with an updated ebuild?
I've been testing this. Seems to work just fine. I've also noticed there's a bug in the latest Xautoconfig: the binary is not Xautoconfig4 but Xautoconfig. I'll try to fix asap.
hey, could you have a look at fixing this in cvs?
works like a charm! :D Plz - put it into portage. Regards, Przemek
Created attachment 40343 [details, diff] The missing piece (Includes support for font path instead of server)
Both patches should be applied to Xautoconfig version 0.22.
matt, can you add this in portage, so I can include it on the 2004.3 betas? Thnxs!
I patched the ebuild and patches a bit more, so that they don't fail. All is in CVS now.
