Bug#755809: xorg.conf.5 man page mentions an incorrect "Enable" option for Monitors



Julien Cristau, 2014-07-28 23:56+0200:
Note how the manpage says "enable all connected monitors", not "enable
all monitors".

Right, that was subtle but useful indeed. Here is an updated patch then.

Description: Complete the xorg.conf.5 manpage with Option "Disable"
 The xorg.conf.5 manpage mentions an "Enable" option to enable a monitor
 regardless of whether or not it is connected, but gives no indication of how
 to disable it. This patch corrects that by documenting the "Disable" option.
