Out of the loop and this is definitely off topic, but what happened to the Xfree86 project? Is Xorg the same? The venerable xfree86config program is gone from the distrib so I assume it is not the same.
- BeetleB 27d agoXFree86 died a long time ago. X.org is its replacement. There was a bunch of infighting as well as a dispute over license changes. People just abandoned it.
