<P>The location of your configuration file for X depends on the particular
release and distribution you have. It will probably be either <CODE>/etc/Xconfig,
/etc/XF86Config</CODE> or <CODE>/usr/X11/lib/X11/XF86Config.</CODE> You should see which 
one it is when you start X - it will be echoed to the screen before all
the options are displayed. The syntax is slightly different between the
XF86Config and Xconfig files, so both are given.
