Re: in search for Dell Inspirion XF86Config file

Two things you need to have done before using the XF86Config below:

1. You need to fetch the NVidia linux drivers from nvidia.com
(I use version 1.0-1251). Install both GLX and kernel drivers (see README 
for instructions)
2. Add "options NVdriver NVreg_Mobile=1" to your modules.conf file
(/etc/modules.conf) (This is _crucial_ to get your Geforce2Go working)

Then copy the XF86Config-4 into /etc/X11/ and modify it to reflect US
keyboard settings, if you have a secondary mouse, extra fonts etc.

If you dont succeed, don't hesitate to throw yet another mail. =)

best regards,
Daniel Povlsen

Disclaimer: There might be odd lines in the configuration file that are
not needed / wrongly used etc. It works for me, but I will gladly hear if
there are any errors in the file. =)
