A couple of other scenario's that exist as well that need a xorg.conf
1) special setups such as SLi, crossfire 2) multi card setups of different makes 3) GPGPU computing that requires a xorg to detect more then the primary card in the system.
I won't reply to all mails. I just want to point out the subject of the thread. It's not about killing sax, or not installing it from the dvd. It's about the live cd. Would you install from a live cd if you don't have X working on the live cd? I seriously doubt it. And if you want to change some X stuff afterwards, you can still install sax...
Thinking this way, let's place only installer on LiveCD...
I didn't state things the way I wanted, I guess: + if you install from the livecd, then it means that you already have X working. + all the X configuration is supposed to be dynamic now, with tools already provided on the desktop. So if you want to change things like resolution or add a new monitor, this should be working fine. + admittedly, there are use cases where this still doesn't work well. The question is "how many people installing from a livecd should need sax for one of those use cases?". My personal opinion is that it's only something like 1%. (and maybe I'm completely wrong) I'm not saying "we should not support those 1%". I'm balancing the cost of removing sax2 from the livecd with the benefit of putting some other stuff on the livecd to make it more attractive. Now, you might disagree with this.
