You are likely correct about the /usr/bin/sed location being standard, however. As for /usr/X11R6, as you can see, newer xorgs have it to /usr, so anything that puts anything there puts it directly in /usr instead. However, the lack of anything else owning it as a dir indicates I don't have anything doing that here. (The Gentoo xorg modules have been updated to put their files directly in /usr.) -- Duncan - List replies preferred. No HTML msgs.
