Recovery
I think this needs a bit of information on recovering if you've totally b0rked a system by mashing your xorg.conf file. Most of the time you can get to a terminal, which is fine (you can edit, restore a backup or dpkg-reconfigure. But once I completely mashed it - I couldn't Ctrl+Alt+F2 or Ctrl+Alt+Backspace. And of course, restarting automatically started X, so back to the Black Screen of Death I went. I had to start from a live CD and edit the file from there. --H2g2bob 22:25, 11 November 2006 (UTC)
