Xconfigurator4 does not work on my system. When I try to use that command it
says command not found. Xconfigurator works but only when I am not in
graphical mode. However, it's still not saving my settings. This is almost
enough to make me evaluate a different release of Linux for the PPC. It's to
damn anoying to reset the graphics, time and look and feel settings every
time I login. Does anyone know how I can fix this problem?

Thanks,
Andy
