Re: xorg parse error: "Extensions" is not a valid sect

Ummmm, what did you edit Xorg.conf with? It looks like there's some weird encoding or something causing it to look like "EÂxtensions" instead of "Extensions".

Maybe you could try opening xorg.conf in a basic editor like vi or nano, deleting the "EÂxtensions" bit, and just retyping it.

That's not a pro viewpoint or anything, but it could be somewhere to start.
