Ive also been having real trouble getting a clean new xorg.conf setup using
dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
even with the dexconf command you suggest and removing /etc/X11/X I seem to
put some remnants from my old xfree86 setup (screen resolutions) in
xorg.conf.
I have a different monitor and video card now and want to start from scratch -
only dpkg-reconfigure won't let me. The xorg.conf file says something about
using information from debconf. Where is this information stored or how can
I tell dpkg-reconfigure not to use it.
