For now, with hal, with dbus, assuming no xorg.conf... where are

Under /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/... or you could continue to use the old
xorg.conf since that will override what's in ...xorg.conf.d/

OK, let me try this once more:

Using only the current setup, that is, one with hal and dbus installed
and one that does not use xorg.conf... and apparently does not use
/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d either... since that directory is not present.

But yet an X display happens when I type `startx', apparently
generated somewhere automatically.

What I'm asking is where does one make customizations to that auto
generated process... something is doing it.. some file or something is
involved... but what and where?


I think it is hal that does this. You can make up your own rules if you want, and can, to "force" it to do what you want. Thing is, the config file is a mess. It's xml and if you don't know xml, well, it ain't pretty. The rules go into /etc/hal/ somewhere. I don't use hal here so this is just info.

I'm not going to get started on hal folks. Just trying to point a little. Relax and breathe.
