Well, I was going to try this while performing some critical |
| 31 |
applications, but maybe I'll wait now. :) |

Okay, so even if I shaft it up, X will still function normally then? I |
| 34 |
suspected that was true, but didn't know for sure. If all else fails I |
| 35 |
can boot another linux system (I have multiple gentoo installs on this |
| 36 |
box) and fix the config file. |
| 37 |
|

I was just curious if there was a way to avoid all this potential pain. |
