Just call me Vince, that will do ;-)

:o( I did try this program, but it always scare the hell out of me, as it asks LOTS of question, when all I want is change one or two little things, and most question are chinese (or german ;o) to me, so I don't know what to answer and fear that I might end up with a completely screwed xorg.conf. I was told in the past, that when I don't know what to answer, I can just take the default value, but I don't trust this, because when it asks for my keyboard layout, the default was US, even though the current setting in xorg.conf is FR !! :-O
So at least for me, I have a lot more peace of mind when editing the file by hand, as I only touch the bits I need to touch, and leave alone all the things I don't need or don't understand.
Isn't there another command that could be run so that a hand tweaked xorg.conf can be considered as "consistent" by the system ?
