Why not just copy the file in your /home, e.g in /Documents? If you have a problem you just have to replace the file with it to crush the wrong version and to return to the original state...

When I copy it to a data storage area, I rename it.....
the date;
110307_xorg.conf
or anything else:
BakUp_xorg.conf
so one does not get confused later on !
To make a backup in the same folder:
if you want a backup in your home Documents folder, just:
Code: Select all
sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup- cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /home/your login name/Documents
