Hi,

Anyone know of a current or mooted way in which to get X-server to
re-read its config files that are under /{usr/share,etc}/X11/xorg.conf.d/
, dynamically and without stop/start or restart X server itself? I.e. to
absorb & use the new cfg - not just check for correctness.


Most-immediate purpose here is: to adjust some settings for hardware that
is added/removed dynamically, and for which it's kindof awkward to know in
advance what its quirks are; so the relevant config files to handle such
cases can't really be in place before X starts. Yes, one can use xset &c to
make cmdline changes, but it'd be useful to be able to shovel the stuff into
the cfg files, and have them re-read: and indeed to be able to do testing of
said cfg files in an efficient manner (i.e. without restart of x-server, &c).


Any input (sic) on this, much appreciated. Apols for noise if am 'omitting
to remember' something relatively direct.
