Consult "man 5 xorg.conf" for the gory details of what directories are searched under the various conditions. :-) :-) Bottom line, from the man page Finally, configuration files will also be searched for in a directory reserved for system use.

Fedora 25 upgrade woes
Hi List, So I updated both my Fedora laptops from 24 to 25, resulting in both booting into black screens with no login dialogs and no way of going into a console or looking at logs. Both systems are very different. One is a Lenovo, built-in Intel graphics support and XFCE, the other is a Dell with a AMD Firepro M5100 graphics card running Cinnamon. Yet the result is the same. I assumed Wayland is at fault here, however I noticed both systems work fine if I boot with an older kernel: kernel-4.8.6-300.fc25.x86_64 : works kernel-4.8.8-300.fc25.x86_64 : nope I had some trouble finding further info on this looking at various forums and mailing lists, hence my message here. Any insight appreciated. ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org
