Package: xserver-xorg
Version: 1:7.2-5
When xorg-xserver runs its post-install script
(/var/lib/dpkg/info/xserver-xorg.postinst) it uses automatic
configuration for some items, even if it has a better source of
information (namely xdebconfigurator) available. In the output from
the script, I see:
xserver-xorg postinst note: available driver list set to "apm, ark, ati,
chips, cirrus, cyrix, fbdev, glint, i128, i740, i810, imstt, intel, mga,
neomagic, newport, nsc, nv, rendition, s3, s3virge, savage, siliconmotion,
sis, sisusb, tdfx, tga, trident, tseng, vesa, vga, via, vmware, voodoo "
xserver-xorg postinst note: could not autodetect X server driver: no video
card detected, or no driver known for it
xserver-xorg postinst note: auto_answer() "db_input high
xserver-xorg/config/device/driver" with default "vesa"
xserver-xorg postinst note: auto_answer: auto-answering with "vesa"
However, when I run xdebconfigurator, it correctly reports:
...
VIDEO DRIVER: i810
...
Running 'dexconfig' at that point generates an xorg.conf file that
properly uses my video card drivers. I'm running debian-live, if that
makes a difference.
The reason I notice this is the 'vesa' drivers give me a 640x480x8
display, and the steps to properly configure the card are very
straightforward. Perhaps this bug should be filed against the live-*
package, but all they do to reconfigure the X server is
"dpkg-reconfigure -fnoninteractive --no-reload xorg-xserver". To my
way of thinking, that should take care of the details of deciding if
xdebconfigurator is installed or not and using it if it is, and the
script it runs is part of xserver-xorg.
Thanks!
Will

Closes: 242952 271599 410889 442892 443397 448845
Changes:
xorg (1:7.3+10) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Just write a default video card identifier
* Only run driver autodetection on sparc hardware
All other archictectures should be better supported by having the server
do it at startup.
Closes: #442892, #448845, #410889, #443397, #242952, #271599
+ Remove discover and discover1 from the xserver-xorg recommends
+ Remove autodetect_video_card and multiple_possible_x-driver templates
* Don't ask the bus ID question to anyone who it's not necessary for
Hardcoding the bus ID is bad. The server already uses the same algorithm
and more to figure out which PCI ID's have video cards, so don't replicate
it. Currently we only ask people who have ppc, SGI indigos, and multiple
heads on sparc.
* Don't write the DPMS option to the monitor section of xorg.conf.
The xserver already defaults to enabling DPMS
