Re: X11 not configured

Hi,

the ddcxinfo is not a hard requirement, it's optional to guide mode
setting for some
old drivers (or better more drivers some years ago before they gained
more fine
grained DDC and modesetting control).

The bug will be that the xcfgt2 script assumes the X.org driver is named
i810,
while the latest Intel driver are installed named "intel".

You can fix this in the package/xorg/xorg-server/xcfgt2.sh and then
rebuilding
the xorg-server to get the new file, and re-create the ISO:

./scripts/Create-ErrList -newremove
./scripts/Build-Target
./scripts/Create-ISO

let me know if it works, I'll also later review this and merge the
changes from
t2/trunk.

Yours,
