This script does auto configuration and writes a new xorg.conf make sure you backup your existing xorg.conf before running this. I used this to update xorg.conf when putting a system image on different hardware, so far it always chooses reasonable resolution and color depth.


#!/bin/sh
# Based on the script found in http://ftp.linux.org.uk/~dan/livecd
# which is referenced from http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/7246
# Changes made so that the script works with xorg as opposed to xfree
