Killed my xserver - here is a quick fix

Posted 09-21-2015 at 08:23 AM by WestCoastSunset

Delete your xorg.conf and reboot.

Actually, I just logged in as root and moved it to my home folder. I wanted to compare the new configuration file, which gets autogenerated, to the mangled config, which got that way when I tried to get Jedi Outcast running.

I did have to reset the resolution as it was on 640 x 480 (This is the default resolution for Jedi I think)


This is something in which there is no windows equivalent. Which for some nerdy reason pleases me greatly.
