One of the benefits of HAL was that X was supposed to start up just fine without an xorg.conf. We all know how that turned out. Maybe we will have to back to using xorg.conf. I prefer being in control of things. On the other hand, maybe mdev can do similar detection. I'm volunteering for a candidate in the Ontario provincial election, ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ontario_general_election,_2011 ) which is on October 6th. So I'll be a bit pressed for time till then. -- Walter Dnes <[email protected]>
