I changed to a higher resolution monitor and added a soundcard to my Kub=
untu machine. Now I want to update the configuration changes. I went to =
the Ubuntu website and got this information:
How do I rerun hardware detection (prob/probing/re-probe)? =
During second stage install Ubuntu probes your hardware and sets up X. I=
f you change your Video Card, Sound Card or even Monitor, you may need t=
o redo this. =
This can be done with:- 'apt-get --purge remove xserver-xfree86'
I read the apt manual and, as I understand it, this will remove xserver =
and the configuration files. I'm not sure though what will happen when I=
do this. Should I get them back again somehow?
