Default X Server 1.8 with new configuration mechanisms

From http://www.h-online.com/open/news/it...ms-970683.html

Quote:
Intel employee and X veteran Keith Packard has recently released version 1.8.0 of X.org's X Server. Like all versions of X Server released in the past few years, the new version usually auto-configures a system's graphics hardware and input devices, which allows it to function without any configuration file at all on many systems.

If manual configuration does become necessary, however, the new X Server can now assemble the configuration from individual files stored in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/; this is designed to offer a more flexible and less error-prone configuration procedure to distributors, third-party driver vendors and users.
