Xorg.conf for LX

[ron minnich]

I've got this lovely LX framebuffer but am a little unclear on how to
set up my X11 config.

any hints welcome. I know that newer Xorg just sorta "gets it right"
but my ubuntu appears not to be that new.

Did you try:

# Xorg -configure

Um - thats bad.  Why are you running aptitude, and what exactly is aptitude

In fact, current Ubuntu does an awesome job of getting it wrong.
Martin-Eric is working hard trying to resolve that.

Run Xorg -configure from the command line, it will make you a valid
xorg.conf you can use.
