Hello fellow developers,

I was just wondering if there are any plans in a future release to
change the XFree86 configuration to XML?

Regards,
Vito Caputo


For those who are curious: I only ask because I am working on an
'embedded' (automotive pc/dash/gauges) project which utilizes XML
heavily for configuration/information storage.

Until recently I had planned to use linux alone w/ggi for graphics via
the vesa fb module, but testing has shown XFree86 has much better vesa
support than the vesa fb module in 2.4 kernels (mode switching for
example).  This has caused me to consider using XFree86 in a minimal
fasion for graphics and input capabilities but configuration must be
done by the software, which can already parse XML.  I can only assume
this is a common situation.  Thanks.
