Should Matrox focus on XFree86 or X.org?

    I reinstalled Gentoo recently and am now using X.org. From user standpoint I don't see any difference. From developer standpoint it does sound like X.org is getting more done.

      So that explains why last night i had to reconfig x-free86 on my friend's box.

        Debian is going with X.org, but they're waiting until the modular release is more complete. You can read all the details on the debian-x mailing lists... though I don't have a link handy at the moment.
