Someone before saved me just the same :-) > This could be added to the handbook :-) Yes, If you run send-pr Or http://www.freebsd.org/support/bugreports.htm that would get it in handbook for release users. & also send-pr to ask for/ or better submit a patch to code not just doc, for people running /pub/FreeBSD/branches/-current/ports/x11-servers/xorg-server (with Makefile containing MAINTAINER= x11@FreeBSD.org) > AllowEmptyInput=False should be a default for Xorg IMO we can report it to > the Xorg project! :-) Xorg will have newer X sources than FreeBSD, & Xorg will be targeting many OS's with different defaults of On/ Off for support daemons, So that cobweb of what they might assume a consistent set of defaults, is probably best pursued between people on x11@FreeBSD.org & Xorg.
