BouncingAyatollah:
Just re-read that, it might be a bit confusing...

XF86Config is the X config file.
xf86config (lower case) is the configuration program! :)

hnugz:
well i tried what you suggested but it said it was an invalid command.  I also tried a lot of the different configurations for xf86config that people said worked with the dell inspiron 8500 computers.  that didn't work.  i suppose ill just wait around for a fix.  guess i just wont run linux for a while.

BouncingAyatollah:
It should be here:

/usr/X11R6/bin/xf86config

Commands in linux are case sensitive so typing XF86Config would have got "command not found".

Try typing xf86co (all lower case, no space afterwards) then hit TAB, if you have the command it should auto-complete this for you, if it doesn't ???
