Package: dpkg, xserver-xorg
Hi everybody, hello Don,
I am running the latest Debian Lenny / Sid combination and wanted to adjust a
workstation to another monitor.
Traditionallly that's done with the following command:
dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg.
If I run that command, the script ends up with the question whether to emulate
a 3-button mouse or not.
There is no questioning for graphics card RAM, horizontal and vertical
frequency range, colour depth, name of xserver, producer of graphics card and
so on. Someone seems to have screwed up the configure script.
If you set up Debian Lenny from scratch everything is fine, but if you try to
reconfigure the xserver you seem to be lost.
This bug appears independently from the type of xserver - it's part of
the "configure" option of the dpkg-Package.
Can someone reading this reproduce this bug?
Can you please fix it?
Regards
Uwe

These questions aren't asked anymore because these settings should be
detected automatically when X starts; this is not a bug.
If auto-detection doesn't work for your hardware, please open a new bug
including your xorg.conf and Xorg.0.log so we can hopefully get that
fixed.
Cheers,
Julien
