Are you using hal? If so, you may need to get or change the config |
30 |

By the way, I have no idea how to edit them. It's in xml. You may can |

google and borrow their config file tho. |

If you are not using hal, it should be set in xorg.conf. I don't use |
37 |
hal and that is where mine is set. |
