Hi,
I recently edited the xorg.conf file so I could use the extra buttons on my mouse, but now when I try to boot up Mandrake, it says "No Screens Found" and it says something about finding /var/X11/xorg.conf or something similar to that. Is there any way to get it back to normal? I'm new to Linux so it would be nice if you made your explanation as simple as possible.

Thanks

Replace the current configuration with your backup.
Post the exact error (probably in /var/log/xorg.log or something, and prefixed with an EE).

The exact error is:

Data incomplete in file: "etc/X11/xorg.conf"
Undefined InputDevice "Mouse1" referenced by ServerLayout "layout1".
