    XF86Config

    Hello there!

    I'm wondering how to get the XF86Config, that is being used by X when it has initialized all my hardware.

    I suppose it is not /etc/X11/XF86Config or /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 (of even the -in versions of both), since they reside on cdrom, which is read-only.

    I would like to get the XF86Config, since I'm unable to create one myself, and knoppix seems to detect everything fine

    thanks all

    Well first X will look for XF86Config-4 but if it doesn't find it then it looks for XF86Config.

    You can use the XF86Config-4 from Knoppx quite easily. SImply boot the cd, mount a partition and do

    cp /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 /mnt/hda2/etc/X11

    voila!
