	XFree86 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		XFree86 consists of client libraries used to write X applications ("clients"), and an X server responsible for the display.
		Versions of XFree86 up to and including some release candidates for 4.4.0 were under the MIT X11 license, a permissive non-copyleft free software license.
		XFree86 4.4 was released in February 2004 with a change to the license [9]: the addition of an advertising clause, similar to that in the old version of the BSD license.

	XFree86 logfile - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The XFree86 logfile is a text file, written by the XFree86 program, and designed to be useful for people who are trying to diagnose problems they are having with getting XFree86 to work.
		That the Build Host is "porky.devel.redhat.com" means that the user, unless he or she is an employee at Red Hat, probably installed XFree86 from a binary rpm package.
		After the keyboard setup XFree86 locates the path to the RGB database, to the modules and to where the fonts are.

		XFree86 è un'implementazione libera e Open Source dell'X Window System che funziona su molti sistemi operativi Unix-like e su Windows NT in quanto parte dell'ambiente Cygwin.
		Il più probabile successore di XFree86 nei sistemi liberi sembra essere X.org nato il 22 gennaio 2004.

	xfree86(1): X11R6 X server - Linux man page
		The XFree86 X server architecture was redesigned for the 4.0 release, and it includes among other things a loadable module system donated by Metro Link, Inc. The current XFree86 release is compatible with X11R6.6.
		The XFree86 server is normally configured to recognize various special combinations of key presses that instruct the server to perform some action, rather than just sending the keypress event to a client application.
		XFree86 was originally based on X386 1.2 by Thomas Roell, which was contributed to the then X Consortium's X11R5 distribution by SGCS.

		XFree86 is a freely redistributable open-source implementation of the X Window System that runs on UNIX(R) and UNIX-like (like Linux, the BSDs, Mac OS X (aka Darwin) and Solaris x86 series) operating systems and OS/2.
		XFree86 release 4 is a major re-design of the basic architectural underpinnings of XFree86's implementation of the original X Consortium's X Server.
		XFree86 was forked due to a change in licensing.

	XFree86 Frequently Asked Questions (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		XFree86 is a trademark of The XFree86 Project, Inc., a non-profit organization that provides X Window System servers (as well as some supporting materials) for several operating systems on PCs and other microcomputers.
		Starting with the 3.3.2 release the XFree86 X servers are installed without the set-uid bit set, and a small wrapper program ``Xwrapper'' which is installed set-uid root is used to start the X server after checking the command line and environment.
		The XFree86 project is not responsible for any of these; please send any inquiries about them to relevant newsgroups or, eventually, to their authors.

		XFree86 is the most popular implementation on Open Source-based systems, such as Linux and *BSD.
		XFree86 is not in any way associated with binary nVidia or ATI drivers.
		XFree86 supports advanced card options like video overlay and video input, in addition to full 3D acceleration for most cards (all nVidia cards and the latest [9500,9600,9700,9800] Radeon cards excepted).

	Re: Using more than 5 buttons in XFree86
		The reason is that the mouse in the standard X hardware interface has a fixed limit of 5 buttons max, and the mouse driver in XFree86 3.3.6 only uses the standard X hardware interface.
		In XFree86 4.0.x however, the mouse drivers are now using the Xinput extension an can have any numbers of buttons.
		So you may want to check XFree86 4.0.1 (or 4.0.2 which should be released before the end of this year if all goes well).

	README for Solaris XFree86 Video Drivers and Porting Kit (Source Edition)
		The Source Edition of the Solaris XFree86 Video Drivers and Porting Kit is based on the freely redistributable open-source implementation of the X Window System published by The XFree86 Project, Inc. See http://www.xfree86.org for details.
		The runtime environment for XFree86 drivers is defined as object files that resolve external function calls and variable references from the wrapper module and XFree86 drivers during runtime.
		XFree86 Driver source code files remain unchanged - this is one of the goals of the porting kit: to avoid work on vendor dependent hardware code.

		Introduction to the 4.x Release Series XFree86 4.0 was the first official release of the new XFree86 4 series.
		Unlike XFree86 3.3.x where there are multiple X server binaries, each of which drive different hardware, XFree86 4.2.0 has a single X server binary called XFree86.
		XFree86 4.2.0 has X server support for most UNIX(R) and UNIX-like operating systems on Intel/x86 platforms, plus support for Linux on Alpha, PowerPC, IA-64, Sparc, and Mips platforms, and for Darwin on PowerPC.

	[arch] XFree86 removal (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		We've been supplying xfree86 for a while now, mainly for the poor ATi users that have non-free shit drivers that don't work with Xorg 6.8.
		The XFree86 team has released XFree86 4.5.0, with their nice shit license and I think it's pretty much the same way as Xorg went.
		I would like to have Xfree86 removed from the repositories if nobody thinks there is a use for it.

	S3 Savage support on XFree86 4.x
		It was built for XFree86 4.2.0; the DRI code, in particular, will need a lot of work for XFree86 4.3.0.
		XFree86 4.x will always use the XF86Config-4 file if it is present, otherwise it looks for XF86Config.
		XFree86 modules are supposed to be operating system independent, and in my experience this actually seems to be true.

	XFree86 gets underwhelmed by Linux distro support
		Xfree86 4.4.0 release, an email from SuSE's PR department arrived at my inbox, detailing the company's position on the new Xfree licence.
		One said: "The XFree86 project is dead, this was just the last shot," conditions of anonymity.
		All this cat-fighting is sad indeed, specially since there are some features in this last Xfree86 update (See here) that are worth having, specially for notebook users.

		XFree86 is a free X11 implementation that supports Darwin and Mac OS X. This will let you run X11 applications and desktop environments.
		XFree86 includes all of the changes Apple has made to their X11 release in Panther (minus the proprietary quartz-wm), as well as other changes and bugfixes.
		Because libXplugin is available on every Panther install, it is even capable of using the same quartz acceleration routines used by Apple's X11, without needing their SDK to be installed when building.

		One problem faced by the XFree86 developers is that some video card manufacturers use non-standard mechanisms for determining clock frequencies used to drive the card.
		You should check the documentation for XFree86 and verify that your particular card is supported before taking the plunge and purchasing expensive hardware.
		In general, XFree86 on a Linux system with an accelerated SVGA card will give you much greater performance than that found on commercial UNIX workstations (which usually employ simple framebuffers for graphics).
