Oh... sorry. Well, in /etc/X11/XF86Config, there is a section
called 'Modules' that is commented out. You have to uncomment
the start and end lines, and add in the appropriate 'load' lines.
I'll have to get to a mcahine with X11 loaded, and I'll mail the
correct lines. And, you have to have loaded the pex and xie modules
with dselect...
