On the subject of X configuration. It's been a while since I tweaked one, but, I checked my system last night after getting home and discovered that my Mandrake version has a null XF86Config file in /etc. Is there some new method of controlling X or did they just hide the real config somewhere (I ran the X setup from the install tool)? Just curious Brian PS. My Corel Linux never asked me about any of my hardware and it all works (albeit it has some Wi*****ish speed behavior).
