Segfaults if there isn't any module section

[Andreas Schildbach]

Binary package hint: displayconfig-gtk

$ sudo displayconfig-gtk
on_button_test_config_clicked()
Traceback (most recent call last):

This happens if I just press "Test", after the GUI comes up.

Tested on a freshly installed Tribe 1 on an Intel i915GMS, both with xserver-xorg-video-i810 and xserver-xorg-video-intel.

Same problem.

I have resolved adding a "fake" module section:
Section "Module"
EndSection

I committed a patch upstream to the kde3 branch of guidance.

Here is the applied patch. In the case that you prefer to not update the kde-guidance upstream source.
