Example of Configuration
(Page 8 of 8)

Completing Configuration



The configuration file will now be written.

I am going to write the XF86Config file now. Make sure you don't accidentally

overwrite a previously configured one.

 

Shall I write it to /etc/X11/XF86Config?

y

The configuration file can be tested by starting the X-Window server:

startx

If everything was correct, the window manager will start and display the desktop if not stop the X-Server and rerun the configuration program correcting any problem entries.

If the X-Server will not run correctly, check on the support area of the website for the Xfree86 project - http://www.xfree86.org/support.html or on the mailing lists at – ttp://www.xfree86.org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86/ . Usually someone else has already solved whatever problem has occurred and the information will be posted there.

Stopping X-Server

The X-Server can be stopped on most distributions by pressing <ctrl><atl><backspace> imultaneously.
