    OK, so someone should add this to the ServerGUI page:

    I had to do:

    sudo Xorg -configure sudo cp /root/xorg.conf.new /etc/X11/xorg.conf

    This should really be spelled out in that servergui page, as mentioned above. Took me 30 minutes of searching.

    You'll be able to self-answer after a waiting period. – RobotHumans Dec 24 '12 at 18:14
  • You can and should answer the question yourself. Just start typing into the "Your Answer" box at the bottom and when finished click the button "Post your answer" – fabricator4 Dec 24 '12 at 18:21
