Re: How do I change my settings to use a different monitor?
Sorry about teh line wrap problem , I'm using elm. How do I restart X or
recycle xdm? Can I run /usr/sbin/xbase-configure instead of xf86config?
I don't think I have xf86config, I used xbase-configure to set XF86Config.

Would I loose my window if I'm making the changes on Xwindows? Is it better to do it through a telnet session? What about when I'm installing new Xwindows addons,is it a problem running dselect from within Xwindows?
