Hi, I'm interested in finding any examples of configuration that require or are helped by putting an xorg.conf file in place. In my experience over the past few years, the drivers have been fully competent with reading EDID, even through KVM switches. In the cases where autoconfiguration is misbehaved, no amount of xorg.conf magic will help. I'd like to flesh out categories of configuration experience, e.g.:
1) autoconfig is fully satisfactory, plug and play. 2) xrandr poking is necessary for primary or secondary display, user wishes to make live adjustments permanent. 3) Physical hot plugging 2nd monitor is necessary for correct config (saw this yesterday, albeit nv_87) 4) User needs to turn on/off some particular feature or extension. How often does this happen? any others...? If this topic is big, we can create another mailing list alias, but for now, lets start here. Thanks, Stuart K.
