    X server configuration

    Hi,

    I'm a beginner user and I work with kubuntu since a few month.

    On my laptop, I tried to install an external screen.

    It working fine on 640*480. So, I modified the config to work in 1024*768.

    Now my kubuntu does not want to boot on graphical session even with the LCD screen.

    From a root console session, after a man xorg, I tried to call xorgconfig or xorgcfg without sucess (command not found).

    I ugrade my brezzy to dapper by the net and I do not anderstand why theses utilities are not installed.

    Can someone help me to retrieve my original configuration.

    Thank in advance,
    Cfm.

    1)If you are lucky, just use your backup (xorg.conf~):

    sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf~ /etc/X11/xorg.conf


    2)Reconfigure your graphic settings:

    sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg


    3)Edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf

    sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf

    (nano is a small, free and friendly editor...Works in text mode)


    Before you edit, BACKUP !

      Hi,

      I'm lucky, so the first proposition was the good for me.

      Thank you very much,
