If the file is missing, then X.org will use default values as it sees fit. This works for most people so the big distros have stopped shipping X.org with a conf file which was honestly a lot of hassle to set up correctly. Having said that, if you wanted to use a conf file, it's still possible to generate a file that sets the defaults and then you can tweak it how you like. I'm not sure the preferred way to do this on Ubuntu, but I know that running "Xorg -configure" as root will work on all systems (this should create /root/xorg.conf.new, which you then have to copy to /etc/X11/xorg.conf). Hope that helps. -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG http://mailman.dclug.org.uk/listinfo/list FAQ: http://www.dcglug.org.uk/linux_adm/list-faq.html
