OpenSuse help

[KelJu]

I am having display problems. My display works fine in the initial yest configuration manager, but chokes at the start of kde. I booted failsafe, went to the sax2 manager. Check my settings then test my display and it works fine. I reboot, and display goes out again at the start of kde. Anybody know an easy way to copy the default xorg into my new xorg configuration?

Normally, I'd try to help people with computers problems, but seeing that I told you to go with Ubuntu and chose Suse instead, all you get is this:

..........HA HA!!!

Just kidding.

Boot to the command line.

Then do this (the case is important):

cd /etc/X11
sudo rename xorg.conf xorg.conf.bad

This will rename (effectively deleting) your X11 configuration file. When you reboot, Suse should put a default configuration in place.

I say "should" because this is what Ubuntu would do, but I'm not 100% certain that Suse will. But you can always put the conf file back if you need to.

Ha, thanks. It worked like a charm. I had to do the very same thing in our lab, but I couldn't remember the x11 directory.

You're welcome.

Remember, it's the 'X11' directory, not the 'x11' directory.
