Taken from RedHat's web site:

"The X Configuration Tool will backup your system's original video configuration file to /etc/X11/XF86Config.backup in case you need it to switch back."

OK, how do you "switch back"?? The documentation tells you this done, and the file exists in the location specifed, but the documentation does not mention how to switch back! Please help! Thanks!!!
 
as root:
Code:
cp /etc/X11/XF86Config.backup /etc/X11/XF86Config
