   configure X

   I have not had a need to configure X for a long time--probably several   
   years.  But today I was reviewing some old code and notes, and they   
   inspired me to try.   
      
   My notes described a command, /usr/X11R6/bin/xorgconfig, but it is gone.   
   In the same directory is the Slackware tool, xorgsetup, but it didn't   
   work.  It produced a screenful of gibberish.   
      
   I'm guessing what happened is that X no longer needs, or allows,   
   configuring, and the Slackware tool remains for the benefit of users with   
   older machines.   
      
   What do you, my fellow Slackers, make of this?
