A mouse may also be specified to override any autodetected defaults for the device. The following options are typically included when adding a mouse in the xorg. Emulate3Buttons — Specifies whether to allow a two-button mouse to act like a three-button mouse when both mouse buttons are pressed simultaneously.
Consult the xorg. Each Monitor section configures one type of monitor used by the system. This is an optional entry as well, as most monitors are now automatically detected.
The easiest way to configure a monitor is to configure X during the installation process or by using the X Configuration Tool. Inappropriate values can damage or destroy a monitor. Consult the monitor's documentation for a listing of safe operating parameters. Identifier — Specifies a unique name for this Monitor section. VendorName — An optional parameter which specifies the vendor of the monitor. ModelName — An optional parameter which specifies the monitor's model name. DisplaySize — An optional parameter which specifies, in millimeters, the physical size of the monitor's picture area.
HorizSync — Specifies the range of horizontal sync frequencies compatible with the monitor in kHz. These values help the X server determine the validity of built-in or specified Modeline entries for the monitor. VertRefresh — Specifies the range of vertical refresh frequencies supported by the monitor, in kHz. These values help the X server determine the validity of built in or specified Modeline entries for the monitor.
Modeline — An optional parameter which specifies additional video modes for the monitor at particular resolutions, with certain horizontal sync and vertical refresh resolutions.
Refer to the xorg. Each Device section configures one video card on the system. While one Device section is the minimum, additional instances may occur for each video card installed on the machine. The best way to configure a video card is to configure X during the installation process or by using the X Configuration Tool.
The following example illustrates a typical Device section for a video card:. Identifier — Specifies a unique name for this Device section. Driver — Specifies which driver the X server must load to utilize the video card. VendorName — An optional parameter which specifies the vendor of the video card.
BoardName — An optional parameter which specifies the name of the video card. VideoRam — An optional parameter which specifies the amount of RAM available on the video card in kilobytes. This setting is only necessary for video cards the X server cannot probe to detect the amount of video RAM. BusID — An entry which specifies the bus location of the video card. On systems with more than one video card, however, a BusID entry must be present. Screen — An optional entry which specifies which monitor connector or head on the video card the Device section configures.
This option is only useful for video cards with multiple heads. The logfiles are of the form Xorg. For a single user machine with default configuration the applicable log is frequently Xorg. To make sure to pick the right file it may help to look at the timestamp of the X server session start and from which console it was started. For example:. X creates configuration and temporary files in current user's home directory. Make sure there is free disk space available on the partition your home directory resides in.
Unfortunately, X server does not provide any more obvious information about lack of disk space in this case. To correct, uninstall the xfvideo-fbdev package. Some programs only work with bitmap fonts. Two major packages with bitmap fonts are available, xorg-fontsdpi and xorg-fontsdpi.
You do not need both; one should be enough. To find out which one would be better in your case, try xdpyinfo from xorg-xdpyinfo , like this:. This may happen if you have previously run Xorg as root e. That error means that only the current user has access to the X server. The solution is to give access to root:. Then, this problem may be caused by systemd issue Set up early KMS start. Tip: You will typically seek to install a window manager or a desktop environment to supplement X.
For Intel graphics on 4th generation and above, see Intel graphics Installation for available drivers. Tip: If you are already running an X server, use a different display, for example Xorg :2 -configure.
Note: Newer versions of Xorg are auto-configuring, so manual configuration should not be needed. If Xorg is unable to detect any monitor or to avoid auto-configuring, a configuration file can be used. A common case where this is necessary is a headless system, which boots without a monitor and starts Xorg automatically, either from a virtual console at login , or from a display manager.
Reason: Xorg always sets dpi to See this , this and finally this. Discuss in Talk:Xorg. Note: This calculation works for monitors with square pixels; however, there is the rare monitor that may compress aspect ratio e.
If this is the case, you should measure your screen size manually. Reducing it below 96 dpi may not reduce size of graphical elements of GUI as typically the lowest dpi the icons are made for is Note: Applications that comply with the setting will not change immediately. You have to start them anew. Reason: Mention xorg-xkill. Reason: mention xephyr Discuss in Talk:Xorg. Reason: Why would you want to do this? Category : X server.

Improve this question. Jorge Castro Ivan Ivan Even if you come up with a solution, don't forget to file a bug on Launchpad so that this hardware configuration can be made to work out of the box in future Ubuntu releases.
We deliberately don't load the intel driver on your hardware because it is too unstable. See this answer: askubuntu. Add a comment. Active Oldest Votes. The xorg. You CAN create one though.

It is just that X now auto-detects the settings, and a xorg. If you know what you want to edit, by all means create one. There is absolutely no reason to reboot even once. Just open terminal, write sudo X -configure; sudo cp Josh G: If you are already running X, just say X :1 -configure.
