Currently I'm running into problems with Kickstart unable to automagically configure my XF86Config-4 files. After kickstart I have to manually hack them (or write automated scripts) to fix them.

This is becomming a huge problem as our linux user base grows. Although we try to get the same hardware/brand To keep things easier we still run into problems.

It seems that kickstart isn't using the DDC information from X correctly, or X isn't giving the correct DDC information. This results in X being configured for a 800x600 monitor (safe mode default config?).

Also, when using digital flatpanel screens. It never sets up X correctly.

Who at mandrake do I need to contact to get this working? I've been given the go-ahead to help hack X / kickstart so we can get this working. I just need to know who i contact for getting this into kickstart and X... (Also where to start... is it just Kickstart that isn't rebust enough... or is X the problem?)
