I was trying to get a dual monitor setup going per this thread
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... 148#642148
I was following suggestions as noted on modifying xorg.conf but evidently didn't do it right. On reboot, it now stops just after an auto login (to xorg?) and waits. Unfortunately I didn't backup the pupsave file first and would hate to lose the work/settings. Is there a way to extricate from this mess or do I just have to start over with 5.3.3? I guess I forgot I couldn't just open the .conf file and set it back to the original (saved a copy) without somehow getting inside the _save file. Me noob!
Also hoping someone will visit the above thread to help me set up the dual monitor. Or maybe I should start a new thread for that in this forum (more traffic)??
Thanks in advance.
