I've got lots of problems with configuring X in kickstart, and the way I end up doing things is simply xconfig --server "SVGA" --monitor "Generic VGA" And in the %post section I mount an NFS export, copy over the correct XF86Config file (or XF86Config-4 file), if necessary adjust the link /etc/X11/X, maybe install an additional rpm, and I'm done. P.s. I have used skipx as well, but then certain rpm's do not get installed, or so it seems. I have never taken the time to figure this out properly. - Wouter. --------------------------------------------------------------- Wouter Liefting Curriculum Owner Linux IBM Learning Services Tel. +31 (0)20 513 5057 (IBM) Tel. +31 (0)252 625 202 (Home office) Fax. +31 (0)20 513 2322 Internet: liefting@xxxxxxxxxx "Taylor, ForrestX" <forrestx.taylor@xxxxxxxxx> on 11-04-2001 18:11:05 Please respond to kickstart-list@xxxxxxxxxx To: "'kickstart-list@xxxxxxxxxx'" <kickstart-list@xxxxxxxxxx> cc: "'Roland Dubouloz'" <Roland.Dubouloz@xxxxxxxx> Subject: RE: Synchronize in %post You may want to try something a little more non-graphical than Xconfigurator (such as xf86config). Try piping that through ed, or just editing XF86Config like you have without running Xconfigurator.
