>Description:
	The paragraph currently instructs users to save their XF86Config
file as /etc/XF86Config when it should be /etc/X11/XF86Config (as is
obvious both from the command output immediately below the paragraph and
from usage).

	This is an issue only for people installing older versions of FreeBSD
(prior to 5.3) and/or those using the installation part of the handbook to
configure X.

>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:
In /usr/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/install
