Ok, I am super new to this.

**To sum it up, how do I save changes made in terminal?**

I am trying to get my pen and buttons to work on the TC1100. I am in the middle of editing xorg.conf in Terminal. The first time I edited the files it did not say to save ( I assumed it did it automatically) and nothing happened. I opened the file back up and it was the same as the original file. None of my changes saved. How do I get my changes to save?:confused:

TIA

What text editor are you using to make your changes? Try making the changes with nano

sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf then edit the file with your changes then to save Press

Ctrl+o
enter
Ctrl+x


Or if you prefer a gui approach you can make the changes using gedit by pressing Alt+F2 and typing

gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
