 The server log doesn't show the option being used. Have you really
 restarted the server since you added the option to xorg.conf? The log
 file looks as though you may have only reset the server instead of
 restarting it (the default with most display managers when logging out
 of a session).
 
 I was not aware of this behavior of the display managers. So I will 
 try restarting it cleanly as soon as I'll be back at my flat.
 
Hi Nicolas,

did you have any luck with this option?

Thanks,
Julien
