Log message: 486. Add "automatic configuration" support for the XFree86 server, allowing it to be started in a useful way without an XF86Config file. - Add support to the config file parser for processing internally supplied configuration data. - Modify the algorithm for finding core input devices to maximise the likelihood that they will be found. - Add a FindDevice function to the OSMouse interface, allowing an OS-specific function to be called to find the mouse device when none is specified in the configuration. Implementations included for Linux and FreeBSD. - Add a GuessProtocol function to the OSMouse interface, allowing an OS-specific function to be called as a fallback when the mouse protocol can't otherwise be detected. Implementation included for Linux. - Bump the OSMouse interface version to 1.1 with the addition of the above two functions. - An interface for calling an external utility "getconfig" to generate some configuration data. Implementation of getconfig included. - Generate a default internal configuration, autodetecting as much as possible, with reasonable fallbacks. - Recognise "DefaultDepth" and "DefaultFbbpp" options in the Device section. - Add a "TargetRefreshRate" option to help prevent modes with too high a resolution (and poor refresh rate) being used as the default. - Use DDC-probed mode timings to estimate the monitor parameters when the DDC-probed information doesn't include a DS_RANGES property. This should improve the reliability of monitor auto-detection. (David Dawes, X-Oz Technologies).
