Okay great thanks i can open the file up now
But it says there was a version that crashed
And theres 7 copies of it when i try to recover it
But it wont let me delete any of them

Just says "vim -r /etc/X11/xorg.conf" to recover then gives me a list of all the failed attemts ive already made to edit it and save it lol
pressing x after escape to save just deletes the charchter i have selected :s

You have configured X Server correctly.

Open VLC Player, Go to Preferences -- Video -- highlight Output Modules.
Check Advanced Options at the bottom and select X11 video output from the drop-down list.

Restart VLC Player.

Firstly, dengav mava, which translates to kickass dude. I busted my brains out to resolve this issue.

Anyhow, for people encountering similar problems with Totem Movie Player, you can click on "Reset to Defaults" in the Preferences menu to resolve this issue.
