.xorg.conf file

Hi,
to enable some screen resolution not available in xvesa i would like to edit the .xorg.conf file, but
I don't find it; where is it?

second:

booting to xorg resets the keyboard map to american.
How can I restore to that I was using in xvesa?

thank you.

Misalf:
I'm not sure if a xorg.conf is always created but if present at  /etc/X11/xorg.conf  then it will be used.

You can also use snippets such as for keyboard layout:

/usr/local/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-keyboard.conf

--- Code: ---Section "InputClass"
Identifier       "Keyboard Defaults"
MatchIsKeyboard  "yes"
        Option           "xkb_model" "pc105"
Option           "XkbLayout"   "de"
Option           "XkbOptions"  "terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp"
EndSection


--- End code ---

Remember to add those files to your backup before rebooting.

alexo:
Misalf, I have not /etc/X11 nor /usr/local/share/X11/xorg.conf.d
Am I missing any .tcz In my onboot services?
actually I replaced xvesa with xorg-7.7.tcz, nothing more
But when I reboot, the scrolling of a window or moving it around is very very slow.

--- Quote ---Definitely a big performance difference between Xvesa and Xorg on slower hardware. Should you retry Xorg a custom xorg.conf file may help, specifying 16-bit color depth, in regards to scrolling and window manager performance. Modify the 'Screen' section in xorg.conf to something like:

--- Code: ---[Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen0"
Device     "Card0"
Monitor    "Monitor0"
DefaultDepth    16
SubSection "Display"
Depth 16
Modes "1152x864"
EndSubSection

Juanito:
If you loaded Xorg-7.7 in the usual way, it would have loaded xorg-server, which contains two files in /usr/local/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/

Since Xorg-7.7 will work without a configuration file in many cases, /etc/X11/xorg.conf is not present by default.

Misalf:
Also make sure to add a valid driver. For example, if you have an Intel graphics card you would need  xf86-video-intel.tcz .
