... I have several xorg.conf files... like this: xorg.conf.install xorg.conf.radeon xorg.conf.fglrx xorg.conf.640x480 And, I have a script that I run in a wrapper when I startx (from runlevel3) that selects the xorg.conf file (driver) I need based on what I'm going to do. For text processing I use the radeon driver... more stable... one X server... and I don't need 3D. For 3D the fglrx xorg.conf file is what is needed... the script takes the choice input and then links forinstance: ln -sf xorg.conf.fglrx xorg.conf ... creates a symbolic link in /etc/X11 that looks like this: xorg.conf --> xorg.conf.fglrx Its just a personal preference... I like symbolic links, and I make heavy use of them too. -- Kind regards, M Harris <>< -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
