Greetings all,
Yes I'm new to it all. That said I'm not a total idiot and know my way around Win/Mac systems very well. So far I've enjoyed my experience with Kubuntu except for the following:
1) I've managed to download/install the Matrox drivers that I require to use my hardware properly including making the edits to a sample xorg.conf file supplied by Matrox. I've made all of the appropriate changes to their file reflecting such things as PCI Bus ID, Resolution etc. So now that I have this file ready I simply cant copy and replace the existing one located at /etc/x11/ because of permissions. I've gone through the help pages, read blogs etc. etc. and have tried all the various methods explained - None seem to work.
I'm obviously not getting something here.
So if anybody is out their who can create a step by step it would be greatly appreciated.
FYI: I am using the latest download from Kubuntu site
Cheers
PS: Anybody else out there with experience running/installing Matrox P650 boards
