And there are some things that might need looking at.

a) the Ctrl+Alt+Backspace to kill X11 does not work anywhere/anyhow for me
and Jaroslaw Zachwieja. While the issue is minor, I was somewhat
disappointed on the response by Stefan Dirsch (repeatedly closing as
WORKSFORME without documenting how to get it working).

Meanwhile I've seen this as well. On my TODO list finally.

d) with MS3 on my netbook, X11 keyboard layout was always US and could not
be changed with yast2 keyboard or yast2 language or KDE-controlcenter. only
xorg.conf with AutoAddDevices off helped.

Keyboard setting should be fixed after the pending SR's from X11:Xorg to
openSUSE:Factory have been accepted. With the switch from HAL/dbus to udev it
should be enough for yast2 keyboard module to run /etc/X11/xdm/keytable for
the static keyboard X11 configuration. No need to restart a daemon like HAL
afterwards.

e) in that course of action I noticed that the (officially deprecated) SaX2
is no more working so creating a xorg.conf is now a lot more
difficult.

Known issue (see Bug #586112). Feel free to provide a fix.

While I heard people saying that "SaX2 should no more be needed", there are
still plenty cases for plenty people when a working xorg.conf is still
needed. Installing a /etc/X11/xorg.conf.template could already help there.

I've written a small shell script (xlog2xconf) some time ago to create such a
template from an existing XOrg.0.log, but with the new xorg-server 1.8 this no
longer works either. :-(

Best regards,
Stefan
