what's the output of uname -a?

ls -l /etc/X11

should give you some idea.

If you've got the full GNOME environment
you can run gnome-display-preferences from the command line

on Ubuntu it's a menu item under System>Preferences>Screen Resolution

Thanks Larry,

Unfortunately, neither file is in that directory or listed in the
whereis. Yes, I ran updatedb to make sure.

Any other thoughts? Is there a tool that I can use besides the
XF86config tool??? I was hoping for something in the gui.

Thanks again
Ron
