NAME
dpkg-reconfigure - reconfigure an already installed pack-
age
SYNOPSIS
dpkg-reconfigure [--frontend=type] [--priority=value] packages
DESCRIPTION
dpkg-reconfigure reconfigures packages after they have
already been installed. Pass it the names of a package or
packages to reconfigure.
This has the same effect as re-installing the package,
basically. I hope one day this will be called by dpkg
--reconfigure
<SNIP>
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This will ask you some question like (similar to XF86Setup) and there will
be your file in /etc/X11/XF86Config-4
I am sending u my /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 by a separate mail.
Hope this helps.
Regards
