Hi Armin,
# cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep xorg

# cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep conf

Would it be "getconfig"? Why I'm not allowed to copy
/root/xorg.conf.ne /etc/X11/xorg and run xorg.conf there?
Unfortunataely xorg.0.log is a big file. I have no idea where to look
at the error message on running xorg.conf. Any suggestion? TIA
B.R.
