If I try your solution and it works, you'll never know.

[iago]

I am prepared to accept that risk.

If I try your solution and it works, you'll never know.

I'll know because you'll have stopped complaining about the problem.  See?  Problem solved!

xfree.config xorg.config xfree.conf xorg.conf etc... none are programs.  Hrm.

xfree.config xorg.config xfree.conf xorg.conf etc... none are programs.  Hrm.

They are files. Hrm. Try editing them.

[iago]

the program is "xorgconfig"

[rabbit]

[root@rasputin spencer]# xorgconfig
bash: xorgconfig: command not found

He's on redhat/fedora iirc. I dunno what he uses. :/

Do me a favor if you haven't already.

The script would probably be in /usr/X11R6/bin.  But I don't know how to configure X on your distro, there's gotta be a configuration script, though.

I'm not sure if rabbit used Google, so...

(I am newbie, can't post URLs. You know the beginning.)

There is not xorgconfig at all. System-config-keyboard should make the changes to xorg.conf, but it is impossible to change the type of keyboard from AT to USB.

System-config-* perhaps?

[root@rasputin spencer]# System-config-keyboard
bash: System-config-keyboard: command not found

Did you RTFM? Or use Google on that? Come on, we aren't the be all, end all answer for this you know... :P

[rabbit]

WTF!  I've been lied to....

Anyway, nobody on Google seems to be having the sme problem.

[Newby]

Don't Google the problem. Google "System-config-keyboard" and your distro (Fedora Core 5 FC5?) and see what comes up.
