It has several security fixes. V4 of XFree86 no longer uses the XF86Setup program to generate the configuration. The preferred way to generate simple configurations is run the server with the -configure option. See 'man XFree86' for more details. Then read 'man XF86Config' for documentation on the configuration file details. The file generated will be /etc/X11/XF86Config and may be edited for more complex configurations such as multiple screens and non-default color depths and resolutions. R.
