Description:

There is some error in hwd, that prevents me from automaticaly generate xorg.conf with hwd -x (or hwd -xa).

Additional info:

[root@harvie-ntb abs]# pacman -Si hwd
Repository : extra
Name : hwd
Version : 5.4.2-1

* config and/or log files etc.


Steps to reproduce:

[root@harvie-ntb abs]# head $(which hwd) | grep edit
# Last edit: 31-Dec-2008 by Markku (rasat at Arch Linux Forum)

[root@harvie-ntb abs]# hwd -x
Testing: kernel (2.6.27-ARCH) supports uevents
Please wait...
/etc/X11/xorg.conf.sis
sed: -e expression #8, char 39: unterminated `s' command <--SOME ERROR
/etc/X11/xorg.conf.vesa

Your sample file(s) ready, rename 'xorg.conf'.
If unsure first try 'vesa' (default).

[root@harvie-ntb abs]# wc -l /etc/X11/xorg.conf.{sis,vesa}
0 /etc/X11/xorg.conf.sis <--FILES ARE EMPTY!!!
0 /etc/X11/xorg.conf.vesa
