xorg.conf. X queries your hardware for any settings not given in |
| 15 |
xorg.conf. This information is not stored anywhere, it is read from your |
| 16 |
hardware each time you start X. If you want to override anything, put it |
| 17 |
in xorg.conf. If you want to see what settings X comes up with, run X |
| 18 |
-configure and look at the xorg.conf file it creates. |
