Thierry Reding a270bb18ba xfree86: Introduce OutputClass configuration 
The OutputClass section provides a way to match output devices to a set
of given attributes and configure them. For now, only matching by kernel
driver name is supported. This can be used to determine what DDX module
to load for non-PCI output devices. DDX modules can ship an xorg.conf.d
snippet (e.g. in /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d) that looks like this:

	Section "OutputClass"
	    Identifer "NVIDIA Tegra open-source driver"
	    MatchDriver "tegra"
	    Driver "opentegra"
	EndSection

This will cause any device that's driven by the kernel driver named
"tegra" to use the "opentegra" DDX module.

See the OUTPUTCLASS section in xorg.conf(5) for more details.

					X Server

The X server accepts requests from client applications to create windows,
which are (normally rectangular) "virtual screens" that the client program
can draw into.

Windows are then composed on the actual screen by the X server
(or by a separate composite manager) as directed by the window manager,
which usually communicates with the user via graphical controls such as buttons
and draggable titlebars and borders.

For a comprehensive overview of X Server and X Window System, consult the
following article:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X_server

All questions regarding this software should be directed at the
Xorg mailing list:
