 Hi,
 
 thanks for submitting that change to question 8.4 of the FAQ.
 
 Unfortunately it ended up slightly wrong:
 
 1. The XF4 example (now example 8-2) is no moused feature, but
    works with the X server, so it should slip a bit below
    (making it the example after present example 8-4)
 
 2. It should be stated explicitly in this section that 
    XFree86 3.3.x series X11 servers and XFree86 4.x series servers use 
    different configuration file formats and that the location of 
    each of these is different!
 
      XF 3.3.x: /etc/XF86Config
      XF 4.x:   /etc/X11/XF86Config
 
 3. Thus most of the time when there is XF86Config mentioned,
    or a config example given - this is just valid for old XFree86 3.3.x!
 
 Again, please state at the beginning that the format and location
 has changed from 3.3.x to 4.x
 
 Give two versions of each example, one in 3.3.x format,
 one in 4.x format.
 
 
 Regards,
 Marc
