Is the XF86Config file interchangeable between different types of Unix/Linux OS's? I have FreeBSD 4.5 with XFree86 3.3.6 and startx works as inspected. I have Slackware 8.0 on the second HDD with exactly the same version of XFree86 3.3.6, but this will not start at all. And this on the very same machine. Can I just copy the BSD XF86Config file into Slackware? The file is plain text and XFree86 is not an OS, it's a tool for many Unix type OS's. Am I thinking in the wrong direction here? As I wrote above, this is a BSD list, but I hope someone have some experiences to share.
