Hey -- *I've* edited ModeLines! Ack! Does that mean I'm elderly? And I thought I was only middle-aged.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Oct 13, 2011 at 10:17 AM, Gilbert E. Detillieux <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:gedetil@cs.umanitoba.ca">gedetil@cs.umanitoba.ca</a>></span> wrote:<br>

If you have no idea what this means, you're either way too old or way<br>

Ah, you young whipper-snappers don't know how good you had it with xorg.conf. I remember hand-editing ModeLines in XFree86.conf... And that was an improvement over the old days, where you had to edit the Xserver source code!...<br>
<br>
I vaguely remember hearing/reading a quote from the late Steve Jobs, way back when NeXT was a new company, where he referred to the X Window system as "incredibly ornate and baroque". I think he gave it way too much credit. ;P<br>
