OK so why cant I edit xorg.conf without thrashing the sys.
all I did was change the default depth from 24 to 16 and every thing went south

so I went back in and notesed it was using the intel driver so I changed it to i810 witch is what I have!
still no joy so I run xorgconfig enter the apropreate setings and still nothing just brite colerd lines verticaley blinking in and out prity soon I just fired up the liveusb and copyed it's xorg.conf over to the installed sys. and all's well agin .........BUT why did changing the depth to 16 couse it not to run??
every other slackwareish distro I'v tryed has benifited from seting depth to 16 on this box and sertinly dident make it crash.
