Status in xserver-xorg-video-ati package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: Binary package hint: xorg I attempted to create a default xorg.conf file by running "sudo dexconf". This ran with no messages, did not create the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file like it is supposed to, and it returned an error code of 10. "man dexconf" implies that the only possible return codes are 0 and 1. Sequence of events: $ sudo dexconf $ echo $? 10 $ ls /etc/X11/xorg.conf ls: cannot access /etc/X11/xorg.conf: No such file or directory $ I also tried "sudo dexconf -o test.conf" with the same results: no file created and a return code of 10. Oddly when I did not use sudo I did get an error message: "debconf: DbDriver "passwords" warning: could not open /var/cache/debconf/passwords.dat: Permission denied" Extra info requested: $ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 10.10 Release: 10.10 $ apt-cache policy xorg xorg: Installed: 1:7.5+6ubuntu3 Candidate: 1:7.5+6ubuntu3 Version table: *** 1:7.5+6ubuntu3 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ maverick/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 10.10 Package: xorg 1:7.5+6ubuntu3 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.35-27.48-generic 2.6.35.11 Uname: Linux 2.6.35-27-generic x86_64 Architecture: amd64 CheckboxSubmission: 4f08ac62e89ad166a1e0b05f95495253 CheckboxSystem: fd6c484c0b5d20a2f1cd036ef0f63975 DRM.card0.DIN.1: status: disconnected enabled: disabled dpms: On modes: edid-base64: DRM.card0.DP.1: status: disconnected enabled: disabled dpms: On modes: edid-base64: DRM.card0.HDMI.A.1: status: disconnected enabled: disabled dpms: On modes: edid-base64: Date: Mon Feb 28 21:42:42 2011 DkmsStatus: Error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory MachineType: System manufacturer System Product Name ProcCmdLine: root=UUID=b5a554b5-92df-4492-abbf-290fd809d2c0 ro xforcevesa quiet splash crashkernel=384M-2G:64M,2G-:128M ProcEnviron: LANG=en_US.utf8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: xorg dmi.bios.date: 09/02/2009 dmi.bios.vendor: American Megatrends Inc. dmi.bios.version: 1701 dmi.board.asset.tag: To Be Filled By O.E.M. dmi.board.name: P6T DELUXE dmi.board.vendor: ASUSTeK Computer INC. dmi.board.version: Rev 1.xx dmi.chassis.asset.tag: Asset-1234567890 dmi.chassis.type: 3 dmi.chassis.vendor: Chassis Manufacture dmi.chassis.version: Chassis Version dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnAmericanMegatrendsInc.:bvr1701:bd09/02/2009:svnSystemmanufacturer:pnSystemProductName:pvrSystemVersion:rvnASUSTeKComputerINC.:rnP6TDELUXE:rvrRev1.xx:cvnChassisManufacture:ct3:cvrChassisVersion: dmi.product.name: System Product Name dmi.product.version: System Version dmi.sys.vendor: System manufacturer system: distro: Ubuntu codename: maverick architecture: x86_64 kernel: 2.6.35-27-generic To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-ati/+bug/726983/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
