try to config x server and make bad result.

hi. i didn't write this blog for long time but now i come back to write it.

i'm reading book for linux newbie. it's very old book and i bought it when it on sale. after read it, i tried to config x server from example from the book. in this book present 3 commands(programs) to config x server. these commands is
  1. XF86Setup
  2. Xconfigurator
  3. xf86config
but my ubuntu(7.10 - gutsy gibbon) don't have these. so i search the google for the way to config it. and found very long command that is
  • dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
so i used it by don't have knowledge about this command. i don't think that it is text mode. oh. but that time i think that i will always enter and enter to make it finished quickly and return normally. but i thought wrong. when finised it, i found that my screen is shift left for a little and less resolution!!! i'm make exclamation. i don't know to restore it.

i tried to config it for many time and used another choice for brought it normally. but until now i can't do it yet. how should i do? i don't have knowledge about x server before. but i think if config save value in file, i will find the normal config file and replace the old. but how can i find normal file. i don't know it. maybe i will copy it from live cd. i don't know this will work? but i must try or reinstall ubuntu again.

if i'm not lazy, i will write the result in this blog. see you
