Description Stex 2005-02-10 15:11:55 UTC 
X.org fail to start when the user change some of his hardware, specially
when change his videocard with another one that need a different X
driver. Some important problem could also appear on monitor and mouse
change and other sensible X hardware. This is a big issue for newbie
users. Need some automatic probing of new hardware when x.org start and try to
automodify is config file with right driver. An xml config file could help?
