Pardon my abysmal ignorance, but what is supposed to replace xorg.conf and all the wonderful X stuff behind it? Is there a RTFM on this?
Excellent question. The only thing I know is that it is now - in 11.2 - all done with "smoke and mirrors" and that it is all done "magically" at the time of booting the system.
It is done "on the fly", at run time.
Where the information is located to do all this is not known to me.
But then, Herr Wernher von Baun, is posting that creating an xorg.conf, using sax2, and whatever you put into it, will be used to get your video screen working correctly. Or so I read what Herr von Braun has stated.
Yes, that is correct. "Simply" create an xorg.conf file, and put there whatever you need to override the automatic detection. The file doesn't need to contain the entire configuration, just the changed "lines" or sections. I don't know if it is documented how exactly to do it, but it has been known for months, in the factory list at least. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
