I had this problem also (Hardy Heron kubuntu stable on AMD64). I was
just getting ready to give up, when I noticed the following error in the
displayconfig error trace:
raise ParseException,"Unknown line type '%s' on line %i" % (first,line)
xorgconfig.ParseException: Unknown line type 'allowmouseopenfail#' on line 55
error: *** runFunction failure
;
I found that I had a line in xorg.conf that read:
AllowMouseOpenFail
man xorg.conf says:
" ... Boolean options may optionally have a value specified. When no value
is specified, the option’s value is TRUE."
Looks like displayconfig does not obey this convention.
Once I explicitly specified a value for the boolean like so:
AllowMouseOpenFail "true"
displayconfig works fine.
Hope this helps in fixing the error / resolving the problem for others.
