/etc/X11/xorg.conf is not deprecated, and is still read by the upstream code. Some input device entries there are ignored since the advent of input hotplug, but that's been true since Xorg 1.4 or so. /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d extends /etc/X11/xorg.conf, but does not replace it. /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d is intended to replace .fdi files for input device configuration that were used by HAL for platforms which have moved off HAL. > And sure enough, the arch linux wiki said > that 10-monitor.conf is the new config file for monitor settings. That's a file created by your distro and a choice they've made to put monitor settings there. (Sorry, I don't know why your driver isn't honoring your modeline, but it shouldn't be because of the file you put it in. I would bet it has a lot more to do with the Intel driver doing modesetting in the kernel instead of Xorg since the advent of KMS.) -- -Alan Coopersmith- alan.coopersm...@oracle.com Oracle Solaris Platform Engineering: X Window System _______________________________________________ xorg@lists.freedesktop.org: X.Org support Archives: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg Info: http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg Your subscription address: arch...@mail-archive.com
