yeah... X woes.. My newest comuter has a chipset that isnt supported under x4
or x3.3.6 w/3d, so Im stuck with 3.3.6 until I get a new computer... it
sucks, but oh well... bigger fish to fry!
I dont know about a utility to switch x configs, but you can copy your
XF86Config file to XF86Config.tube, then make another one for the LCD, and
copy it as XF86Config.lcd, then copy the apropriate one as XF86Config as
needed.
