This is my new XF86Config-4 file: I noted the changes I made.Did I put the changes in the right placeand in the right format? (xxxx) denotes changes I made. After I save the file in Midnight Commander I rebooted which DID NOT get me back into a GUI. Should I have typed "startX" before I rebooted? A Linux newbie trying to learn!
