here are some typical autogenerated entries.
but wacom-tablets (like lobster uses) seem to need some recompiled files.
So this here is no solution for you,just intended to give you an idea how such entries look like.

xorg.conf is used by the X.org xserver.
It is part of Puppy 1.0.7 (final version available at new years day, beta version see newspage).
the conf is in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
For older puppys:
http://www.murga.org/~puppy/viewtopic.php?p=14009#14009
But I would suggest using Puppy 107, as it has some great wizards that make setting up X.org much easier than with the Dotpup.

Use a copy of your existing pup001 to test it.
Configuration-files basically should not be touched.
But several dotpups might need to be re-installed.
Puppy moves several files to /root/tmp/USERREMOVED.
So copy them back to the correct location after the upgrade, or re-install the broken Dotpups.
I am not shure if that is a bug in the Dotpups created with my wizard, or in Puppy.
If I remember well, that did not happen when upgrading from puppy 105 to 106, but I am not shure about that.
