So :0 no longer has what you configured in /etc/X11/XF86Config-4, even
though the X server clearly picks that up on startup. If you don't want
to investigate your :0 session, maybe you want to provide the
information for someone else to do it?

If you prefer pc101, why do you have macintosh in /etc/X11/XF86Config-4
in the first place?
