Cannot execute xf86config after new installation...

I'm a complete n00b, but I really want to learn about Linux, so I decided to try Slackware. Installed Slackware 10.0 on my PC (Thunderbird 1333, 512MB SDRAM, 40GB HD, ATI Radeon 9600). Now to my "problem":

When I come to the point in shilo's guide when I'm supposed to run xf86config I cannot run that command. It seems that I don't have any xf86config file. Why is that?

(I've got Gnome starting up without running xf86config, but I dunno why it's working. Guess it's has something to do with xorg, whatever that is?)...

Best regards

you 're probably using Xorg.

See if you have xorg.conf

Hey, thanks for your answer/question.

Yes, I'm using xorg, and I've got the xorg.conf...

But why don't I have xf86config? What I know I didn't choose anything during the installation.

What's the difference between them? I've always used xf86 earlier so I'd like to use that now also. Is that possible? Exactly how do I do then?

the configuration files (XF86Config, xorg.conf) are very similare.

If u know how to do things with XF86Config you'll find your way with xorg.conf.

Xorg is newer that XF86, and it's supposed to be better.

New distr. come with Xorg

Aha... Thanks for letting med know!

I guess that I could get used to Xorg also :P
