I have installed knoppix to my HD. While playing with the X config utility on the KDE menu (in Kcontrol), I got my my XF86Config-4 file screwed.
Since Knoppix did a good job of detecting and setting up my hardware (X included), I was wondering if I could get it to do it again? I have edited the XF86Config-4 file by hand until I'm blue in the face. Easy X configuration sure is a weakness in Linux. The only time I've ever had a working X config was whenever the distro did it for me.
I'll take suggestions on doing it by hand. But, I'd really like to see if I can use Knoppix's built-in utiility to do it for me.
Thanks,
Darren
