Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: kcontrol
(After fresh install of TLS + all latest updates applied.)
KDE 3.5.2.
display driver ati.
After changing the Xorg.conf to work with an external monitor on an HP
nx8220, display modules cames up with an error. The (stderr?) to console
says
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pythonize constructor -- pid = 4178
Python interpreter initialized!

-------------------------------------------------
Notes:
- The same config file worked for same hardware in breezy.
- With the Xorg.conf supplied by the installation the display module comes up but fails to set up an external monitor.
- There is (probably unrelated) driver bug where when X comes up with an external monitor attached, X will start in 640x480 only.
This is the Xorg.conf
