As the person before me said edit the /etc/xf86config file which is a text file
for simplistic things use vi.

e.g. vi /etc/xf86config

you should then arrive at a text file if you have downloaded any help files or
on the LDP then you might try to have a look at how to use "vi" but use that as
an example then have a look at the xwindows setup and should work it out its not
to bad.
