i just wanted to clarify that it is not necessary to use the XFree86 meta package to install XFree86, there are packages/ports for the different parts.

State Changed From-To: open->closed I committed a slightly different version of your patch: - I tried to limit line length to 72 chars - 2 spaces should be added between a period and the beginning of a new sentence. - s/4.x/4.X - I used a comma instead of the dash. Thnaks for the submission!
