I really want to say yes, but I know I have (hardware) customers that document it as the way to generate an xorg.conf file. Apparently just _writing_ as much of one as you need is too much to ask. But, when I ask them _why_ they (or their customers) need the ability to generate one, I tend not to get an answer... Perhaps we'd want to move to a model where xorg.conf.d comes pre- populated with the default settings (possibly just commented out). If done properly we could entirely throw out xf86AutoConfig.c, which certainly has its appeal. - ajax _______________________________________________ xorg-devel@lists.x.org: X.Org development Archives: http://lists.x.org/archives/xorg-devel Info: https://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg-devel
