Notes:
The purpose of this tutorial is to learn how to configure and Xfree86 X Server. The approach that will be taken is to explain the basic X windows model, then explain how the hardware typically works, and then show how the configuration file connects these two things together.
Once an understanding of how all this works is achieved, then some of the configuration tools that have been created to simplify the process will be reviewed.
