xorgconfig removed?


Hi,

I'm just curious. Is xorgconfig not included in any packages? I can only find xorgsetup in -current.

Does anyone know more?

At a guess, it's probably due to X.orgs move towards auto confguring. I've never found xorgconfig that useful anyway. Does 'X -configure' still generate a xorg.conf file under current?

Either use xorgsetup, or remove your xorg.conf entirely (this is possible if you are not using binary Ati or Nvidia drivers or need other customization).

It's a pity -- it was a nice tool. The world changes so I should change my habits.
