list of important ubuntu config files
 
can someone provide me with a list with some of the most important config files for general use. eg. startup menus, hard disk mounting. that kinda thing. thanks in advance iwan

/etc/apt/sources.lst - apt-get source servers
/etc/fstab - Disk drives mounted at boot
/etc/hosts - self explanatory if you cat the file
/etc/resolv.conf - your dns information
/etc/X11/xorg.conf - Xorg config file


This is what I could think of off the top of my head
