"redoing" my xorg

All right.  I think I somewhat made a mistake.  I have a radeon hd 3650 card, and I was thinking about installing the video-radeonhd driver,but for some reason, I wanted to try out the hwd option, and I accidently generated a (based on?) vesa xorg.conf

If I run hwd -s, it says my driver is vesa and vesa shows up under device in my xorg.conf...  If I replace vesa with radeonhd, will that actually do anything?  Do I just need to (somehow) remake my xorg.conf based on radeonhd? AHHH! This is like... go number three at getting this mofo working :-)   kdemod is downloaded and waiting for me....ahhhhhh!!!

thanks!

if driver is installed then yes, just replacing vesa with radeonhd should work

edit your first post and mark the topic as [solved] and maybe change the name to something more descriptive, because it is pretty vague I think.
