 You need typical keyboard and mouse configuration sections, too.
+===== xserver 1.8+ and input devices + udev =====
+Hal is no longer used. See [[https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Input#Input|https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Input#Input]]
+NOTE: **xinput** is in **xorg-app-xinput** package in PLD Linux.
+==== xserver 1.8+ and keyboard ====
+Configuration stored in '/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-keyboard.conf' supposed to support pl national characters and ctrl-alt-bkspc. Missing ctrl-alt{-,+}) though.
+<file>Section "InputClass"
+        Identifier "keyboard-all"
+        Driver "evdev"
+        Option "XkbLayout" "us,pl"
+        Option "XkbModel" "evdev"
+        Option "XkbVariant" ",qwerty"
+        #Option "XkbOptions" "grp:alt_shift_toggle,grp:switch,compose:rwin,terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp"
+        Option "XkbOptions" "compose:rwin,terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp"
+        Option          "LeftAlt"       "Meta"
+        Option          "RightAlt"      "ModeShift"
+        MatchIsKeyboard "on"
+EndSection
+</file>
+==== xserver 1.8+ and synaptics ====
+Consider creating file '/etc/xorg.conf.d/10-synaptics.conf' containing:
+<file>Section "InputClass"
+        Identifier      "touchpad catchall"
+        Driver          "synaptics"
+        MatchIsTouchpad "on"
+        MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
+        Option          "SHMConfig"             "true"
+        Option          "HorizEdgeScroll"       "1"
+        Option          "VertEdgeScroll"        "1"
+        Option          "TapButton1"            "1"
+        Option          "TapButton2"            "1"
+        Option          "TapButton3"            "1"
+        Option          "AccelFactor"           "0.001"
+EndSection

 Solution: change xdm to use fixed tty that's not used in inittab for mingettys (like tty9).
+===== xorg-driver-video-intel >= 2.9.99.0 requires KMS =====
+Latest Intel xorg drivers require KMS (kernel mode setting) to be active. Run kernel >= 2.6.31 and set in /etc/sysconfig/geninitrd:
+<file>PREMODS="intel-agp i915"
+</file>
+and regenerate geninitrd.
+Alternatively run:
+<file>modprobe i915
+</file>
+===== XDMCP =====
+If you want to create cross computer X sessions using XDMCP please enable it *dm (kdm, gdm) on machine you wish to connect to.
+Now you can run:
+<file> X -query xdmcp.enabled.server
+</file>
+or just  X or local kdm and select network log in instead of local log in.
+==== Source IP# number problem on client machine ====
+Rules which X selects interface on which it binds for X sessions are not clear for some people. If you spot problem :
+<file>XDMCP fatal error: Session failed Session <some_number> failed for display my.adress.not.acessible.to.server:0: cannot open display
+</file>
+Try if forcing connection source ip adress helps:
+<file> X -query xdmcp.enabled.server  -from  my.adress.acessible.to.server
+</file>
