Is there any particular reason gdm (and kdm for that matter) don't

at least.


I'd far rather be making changes to config files than doing the symlink
voodoo we used to

The way the symlink voodoo was done before via Xconfigurator, I'd
agree, as it was IMHO quite a nasty mess.  It doesn't need to be
such a disaster though, at least in theory.  ;oP

I'd prefer for there to never ever be more than one X server to ever
want to install, thus making /usr/bin/X a hardlink to /usr/bin/Xlinux,
but that has some drawbacks too. ;)
