Is /etc/X11/XF86Config renamed


Hi folks,

FC2
kernel-2..6.7-1

$ uname -a
Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.7-1.494.2.2 #1 Tue Aug 3 09:39:58 EDT 2004 i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux

I could not locate /etc/X11/XF86Config

$ ls /etc/X11/
Code:
applnk     serverconfig           XF86Config-4~              Xmodmap
dm         starthere              XF86Config-4.deprecated    xorg.conf
fs         sysconfig              XF86Config-4.rpmsave       Xresources
fvwm2      twm                    XF86Config.backup          xserver

lbxproxy   xdm                    XftConfig.README-OBSOLETE
prefdm     XF86Config~            xinit
But
$ cat /etc/X11/XF86Config.ub7018
Code:
# XFree86 4 configuration created by pyxf86config

#       Option  "XkbVariant"    "nodeadkeys"

# If you'd like to switch the positions of your capslock and

Look at the directory listnig closely. You will find the file xorg.conf.

That is the file that replaces XF86config.
