/usr/sbin/xdebconfigurator line 590 reads: open (ED,"get-edid |parse-edid |"); When get-edid fails, the script goes into a loop because get-edid sends errors to stderr and the following line 601 does not catch the error: last LINE if($line =~ /Something special has happened/i); To fix the problem change line 590 to: open (ED,"get-edid 2>&1 |parse-edid |"); Thanks. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (700, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (x86_64) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.15.6-vs2.0.2-rc13 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages xdebconfigurator depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.2 Debian configuration management sy ii discover 2.0.7-2.1 hardware identification system ii hwinfo 12.9-2 Hardware identification system ii perl-modules 5.8.8-4 Core Perl modules Versions of packages xdebconfigurator recommends: pn kudzu <none> (no description available) ii read-edid 1.4.1-2.1 hardware information-gathering too -- debconf-show failed -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
