Depends a bit on the distro, but I can't think of any common app that would
rewrite XF86Config *every* time you start X.
Perhaps you'd benefit from telling us the details?
1. What distro and version?
2. How do you start X? (startx, xdm, something else)?
3. What version of X? (At least on some distros, X 4.x.x uses a config file
called XF86Config-4, not the older XF86Config used with X 3.x.x. Might you
be editing the wrong file?)
4. What changes are you making (or trying to make)? Might you be making a
change that does not work? And how are you making the changes -- editing
XF86Config in vi, using xf86config, something else?
5. Exactly what do you mean by "it go back to the original"? Examples of
what you *might* mean are:
A. the changes in XF86Config do not show up in the way X starts.
B. after starting X, you open XF86Config again, and the changes
you made are lost.
C. The same as B, plus the XF86Config file has an old timestamp,
not a recent one.
In cases B and C, if you edit the XF86Config file, save it, close your
editor, restart your editor, and open XF86Config again (without starting X
in the meantime), do you see the changes you made?
