 Thanks for the answer. Now if I can just find the XF86Config.

<div>
If you haven't already done so, run the command &quot;updatedb&quot;. This will create a database of all files on your system. Then you can type &quot;locate XF86Config&quot; to find all files that contain the string you are looking for. Depending on how fast your system is and what else is running, it may take a while to create the database. Hope this helps.

Linux is a UNIX-like open source operating system with hundreds of distinct distributions, including: Fedora, openSUSE, Ubuntu, Debian, Slackware, Gentoo, CentOS, and Arch Linux. Linux is generally associated with web and database servers, but has become popular in many niche industries and applications.
