[Bug 157321] Re: 28 new Dell monitors for MonitorsDB file

[Bryce Harrington]

** Summary changed:

- 28 new Dell monitors for hwdata file
+ 28 new Dell monitors for MonitorsDB file

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: hwdata
  
  I've just synced the hwdata MonitorDB file in Fedora for Fedora 8
  against Dell's published list of monitors on support.dell.com.  The
  Fedora hwdata package is used as the basis of the Ubuntu hwdata package,
  which is great.  I've updated my sync script to report Dell monitors
  that are missing from both Fedora and Ubuntu packaging now.  Here's the
  list of missing packages from Ubuntu gutsy and hardy 0.200.  These will
  all be included in Fedora 8 hwdata-0.207-2 starting tomorrow.

+ 
+ Impact:  This will ensure users of Screens and Graphics, and Bulletproof-X can find the correct Dell monitor.
+ 
+ Addressed:  Attach patch adds the listed monitors to kde-guidance's
+ MonitorsDB, used by S&G and BPX.
+ 
+ Reproduction:  Using one of the monitors listed above, attempt to
+ configure it using S&G or BPX.  The monitor will not be listed.
+ 
+ Regression Potential:  Near zero.  This merely adds some new entries to
+ MonitorsDB, which is only used if the user configures using either
+ BulletproofX or Screens and Graphics (in many cases, Ubuntu's defaults
+ and xorg autodetection will "just work").
