Hi My monitor died this morning, a 19 inch Eizo I replaced it with a spare 14inch and without running Sax the screen appeared OK. this evening I decided to set it up correctly, however when I run Sax I get message Nested quantifiers in regex; marked by <-- HERE in m/�<-- HERE so505/ at /usr/X1 I cannot set it up by Yast either.
Just a random thought, but has something happened to the XF86Config file that is causing Sax to die as it attempts to parse the current config ?
Maybe you hand edited it or maybe an installation script for some graphics hardware has done something silly.
You chopped of part of the error so I can't see the path of the file that contains the regex causing the problem, what did it say ?
