dpkg-reconfigure won't change it if you've modified it. It compares the current md5sum against a stored md5sum of the original config file. If the two are different, it will go through the whole configuration script and then *silently fail* to update the file. This is a longstanding bug-- see http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=223929 . To make dpkg-reconfigure think that xorg.conf hasn't been modified, run md5sum /etc/X11/xorg.conf >| /var/lib/x11/xorg.conf.md5sum then rerun dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
