Hmmm. This I don't understand. What would be the purpose of symlinking, 
and from where (i.e., what point in the Linux startup process) would the 
symlink get used? Are you talking about creating a symlink pointing to the 
desired XF86Config and calling it "XF86Config" each time I am preparing to 
start X? I can see how that would work, but it seems about the same amount of 
time and trouble as renaming XF86Configs each time I wish to start X. I 
guess I'm looking for a more elegant and less time-consuming solution. So 
far, Ray's looks best.

Thanks, James
