There are three ways. In Mandrake, the easiest way is to use their
drakconf app. It's self-explanatory and pretty and therefore for pansies.
The real man's (or woman's) way is to use the xf86config app. This will
earn you respect. The real hardcore geek's way is to edit the XF86Config
file by hand (it's in /etc/X11---read the man file). This will earn you
undying glory and several ulcers.
