You can still use xorg.conf in Maverick but it doesn't ship with one. If you make one it will be obeyed.

You can generate a file by booting to root recovery mode and running:

Xorg -configure

This will make a skeleton file which you can then flesh out after you reboot by running:

shutdown -r now

No; this doesn't work. I got a message; xorg command not found.

The x in Xorg is capitalized. This is clear in the command I gave. Linux is very casesensitive which is why you should not change commands given
