kcontrol's display module has unhandled Python exception

I can confirm this bug exactly as described

This patch fixes this bug

Good work on the fix. It will be including the next guidance release. (0.6.4)

When will this be? It's kind of an irritating problem...

Kubuntu folks, could we get this merged until then?

looks fixed!

Thanks jriddell!

Doh. apologies for already posting this on the duplicates:

I am having the same problem. Here is my lspci result:

0000:01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation: Unknown device 01df (rev a1)

and with -n:

$ lspci -n | grep 01:00

0000:01:00.0 0300: 10de:01df (rev a1)

The card is a 7300 to the best of my knowledge. It is using the ubuntu package of the restricted driver set.

tarek : )

reopen bug?

Fix has been released. There seems to have been a misunderstanding after that. Please reopen if this is not the case.

Still doesn't work in Edgy with guidance-0.7.0-0ubuntu4 with nvidia binary drivers. (it did work previously in the edgy RC)

'kcmshell displayconfig' gives the following output:

Pythonize constructor -- pid = 7782

I have a similar problem in feisty, slightly different error. The problem is essentially the same as above, though--getAvailableResolutions() returns an empty array.

Please help me fix this problem
