Okay, I give. I'm having a problem with configuring xorg. |
2 |
|
3 |
I *do* have a basic configuration, but can't run some applications in |
4 |
full screen mode and I surmise this is because something isn't set |
5 |
properly in xorg.conf I ran Xorg -configure and it did give me a basic |
6 |
configuration, but the file is nothing like I am used to from before I |
7 |
had to rebuild my system and I can't find an xorg.conf.example file - I |
8 |
don't know if I accidentally deleted it or not. |
9 |
|
10 |
In particular, this is the stuff that I don't understand and without the |
11 |
xorg.conf.example file, I have no means of reference. |

I also tried using xorgcfg, but I didn't even get a working |
110 |
configuration with that and I *do* know my monitor settings. |
111 |
|
112 |
Also, the man page for xorg.config isn't any help cause it doesn't |
113 |
mention any of the stuff like "viewport" that I could see. |
114 |
|
115 |
I've re-emerged xorg-x11 hoping to get the xorg.conf.example file back, |
116 |
but that didn't work. |
117 |
|
118 |
So, if any of you kind people can lead me by the nose here and/or let me |
119 |
know how to get the xorg.conf file back I would appreciate it. |
120 |
|
121 |
The frustrating part here is the before I screwed up my system, I had |
122 |
everything related to x working just fine. |
123 |
|
124 |
I don't know if it will make any difference to you, but my max monitor |
125 |
resolution is 1280 X 1024. Horizontal sync is 30 - 81 KHz. Vertical is |
126 |
56 - 75 Hz. |
