I had the problem too, that dpkg-reconfigure didn't write a new config file. By chance I found out that you have to use the tool called "dexconf": :~$ dexconf --help Usage: dexconf [OPTION ...] write an Xorg X server configuration file based on debconf database values Options: -h, --help display this usage message and exit -o FILE, --output=FILE write configuration file to FILE This help message is intended only as a quick reference. For a description of the usage of dexconf, see the dexconf(1) manual page. Could have saved you a lot of work ;-) Greetings, Christian -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
