   > How do I transfer a file from a flash drive to the harddrive via console?   
      
   First find out where the flash drive is, something like /dev/sda1   
   Use the disk free (df) command to find out.   
      
   $df   
      
   My computer shows (among others):   
   /dev/hda2               240895     12378    215665   6% /boot   
   /dev/hda1             61440556  30344956  31095600  50% /media/hda1   
   /dev/sda1               503016    362448    140568  73% /media/KINGSTON   
      
   My Kingston drive was auto mounted  /dev/sda1 at /media/KINGSTON   
      
   Then copy the file named xorg.conf to /etc/X11/xorg.conf   
   The copy command is (cp) and needs to be done as root (sudo)   
   Use in place of KINGSTON the name your flash drive has.   
      
   $sudo cp /media/KINGSTON/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf   
      
   You are asked for your password and if you want to overwrite the    
   existing file, give appropriate answers.   
      
   Restart X.   
      
   Success!
