This part should be at the end of the 5.4.2 section, not in the middle
of the configuration with "XFree86 -configure".
About xf86config, this later is deprecated, and xf86cfg is the preferred
tool, we should only talk about this one.

Responsible Changed From-To: freebsd-doc->blackend I'll take this one. State Changed From-To: open->closed I committed a slightly different version of your patch: - I put the whole text between note tags - I used a manual page entity for xf86cfg(1) - I changed "XFree86-4-Server" for "XFree86 4.X distribution" to not confuse the reader. - And then I added a direct reference to the manual page. Thanks for your submission. |
