dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86无法更新XF86Config-4文件。

配置完后，显示：Note:not updating /etc/X11/XF86Config-4,File has been customized.

$zless /usr/share/doc/xfree86-common/FAQ.gz
输入:
/X.md5sum
来搜索 X.md5sum 所在的一段，它会回答这个问题：

*) I've customized my /etc/X11/X, /etc/X11/Xwrapper.config, and/or   /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 files so the packages don't automatically update them anymore.  I'd like them automatically managed again, though; how can I achieve that?

如果你以前曾经自己手工修改过 XF86Config-4，那么，dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86 就不会去更新 XF86Config-4 文件了。

那怎么办？

我重装了xserver-xfree86也没用。

faint, 不是给你说过了么？看：
/usr/share/doc/xfree86-common/FAQ.gz
又不是没办法。

受益匪浅
见到过这个提示，但没怎么注意，结果XFree86Config-4怎么reconfigure也不变
现在好了
谢谢

食古不化

今天找到正解

把/etc/X11/XF86Config-4备份后删了,然后再执行xf86config就可以了,新的配置文件是/etc/X11/XF86Config
