For God's Sake Someone Respond

I need help, I want to reset my xorg.conf file to what it originally was when I started Kubuntu. The problem is, is that I can only use the recovery system, and cannot manually edit the xorg.conf file

Why can't you edit it as root?

Why can't you edit it as root?

because it says that I do not have permission to. Even when I have root access

Forget the root mode.

Boot up in normal mode.

If you're stuck at a console, log in as the first user you created during installation, type

sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg

and type your user password.

Follow the prompts as best you can. If you don't know the answer to a question, go with the defaults. Then press Control-Alt-F7 and Control-Alt-Backspace.
