Hi Hartmut, it seems you - as myself - not such a great fan of fireworks an endless parties at Sylvester ??? ...1.Januar and hacking the computer at this time...six o'clock in the morning.... ;) ;) ;) I have copied my /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d to /etc/X11 and have restored the original file than in /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/. You are right: it is better to leave it untouched. When updateing the chance is given, that it will be overwritten... Is "Option-wise" the 1.8 upgrade guide complete or is it a list of "commonly used" settings... ? Keep hacking! :) mcc
