Description Evamaria Fuchs 2006-02-03 15:54:54 UTC

Hi Marcus, don't know if this is a real bug or a well known problem.
I use a Matrox G550 dual head
Sigi said, this will perhaps cause some problems

- Default installation in German language
- Configuration of hardware
- Hardware configuration dialog
- use of the link in the section "Graphics Card"
  => Test the configuration
- See the SaX2 dialog for screen adjustment
- Use "Abort" or "Cancel" (German: Abbrechen)
=> Screen is black, no access to machine, CTRL-ALT-F1 doesn't work
=> Can reprodcue this within the installed system

What kind of data do you need.
The hardware list?
Is there a logfile of the SaX? 
Or do you need the complete YaST logs?

/var/log/SaX.log will be very helpful here, I guess ;-)

BTW: Can you blindly type any commands (like "beep" ;-) after Ctrl-Alt-F1?
(You should be logged in on tty1 of course to test this.)

You clicked on "Test" right ? Well in this case you have 2 X-Servers
running both using the mga driver. The driver don't like this and it
can happen that the machine crashed very hard.

I'm sorry but mga has no maintainer but lots of bugs. The driver
wouldn't get fixed. We have to live with the problems currently.
The workaround here is not to test

sorry for the poor answer
