I am still 'non the wiser' as to why sax2 failed. If someone can let me
know how to pipe the output of the command 'sax2 -a' to a log file I
will post it here. I can log most of the ouput, but not the lines
during the failure, where it prints which lines of which object the
program failed at.

/var/log/SaX.log should be good enough for debugging.

I looked in here but there does not appear to much helpful debugging
information.

Actually helpful is XOrg.0.log, SaX.log and output of 'hwinfo -gfxcard'. Each
separately is not complete information. There is also third utility that I
can't recall the name.

There is difference in output of 'hwinfo -gfxcard' when you boot in runlevel 3
with onboard adapter enabled or disabled in BIOS. So far I recall it is fine
if primary adapter is the same as required with 'sax2 -c <card_number>, and
not so if you ask for another card. I had problem with this computer because
BIOS would enable onboard adapter although it was manually disabled, so at
the end I gave up and use onboard graphic. It is slightly slower than add on
card, but I can live with it. I guess it was looking for PCI-e only and add
on was plain PCI, so it will not see add on card. Though, I never bought
PCI-e to check is that the case.

In any case it would be interesting to file bug report.

I have never filed a bug report, since I always assume that I have screwed
something up, which is invariably the case.
Here there was not much I could mess up during install, so will look into
this. I would like to be able to save the listing from the program to put
in the bug report, but have failed so far to do so.

I wouldn't worry about that output as part of that is in SaX.log or
Xorg.0.log. If guys that will debug problem need more they will tell what and
how to obtain it.
