Interesting, but it seems more complex that a simple stanza |
| 19 |
in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d. Using udev rules for something that will only be |
| 20 |
used by one application adds unnecessary complication, IMO. If only X |
| 21 |
will use the information, I'd prefer to put in in the X configuration |
| 22 |
directory. |
