When I run Xconfigurator yesterday I checked /tmp...
I saw, that it is making 2 type of tmp files
XF86Config.tmp and dumbconfig.1 (.2 or sometimes .3)
I maked link to another file:
ln -s somefileicreated XF6Config.tmp
ln -s anotherfile dumbconfig.1
and when I run Xconfigurator I saw that it overwrites this files
(somefileicreated and anotherfile).
I saw that it creates it only when it runs X -probe

So running Xconfigurator on multi-user system is dangerous...
