 Here's the URL for the message that Martin Costabel posted last
 September with instructions for installing Xorg so that it's possible
 to switch back and forth between XFree86 and Xorg.

http://article.gmane.org/gmane.os.apple.fink.general/14793/match=xorg+package+solves+gimp2+problem

In this response, Dave Morrison suggests that permanent installation fo Xorg should suffice.

Does everything in Martin's message still apply?

Is there now any reason why I might want to switch back and forth between XFree86 and Xorg?
