-Xenocara should run smoothly with fully free software drivers. The exceptions to this rule are recent GPUs (especially NVIDIA GPUs), that are not supported. If it is the case, use the default Xenocara driver which includes GLAMOR acceleration (see [[https://man.openbsd.org/OpenBSD-6.5/modesetting.4|modesetting(4)]]).+Xenocara should run smoothly with fully free software drivers.

 The /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ directory stores host-specific configuration. You are free to add configuration files there, but they must have a .conf suffix: the files are read in ASCII order, and by convention their names start with XX- (two digits and a hyphen, so that for example 10 is read before 20). These files are parsed by the X server upon startup and are treated like part of the traditional xorg.conf configuration file. Note that on conflicting configuration, the file read last will be processed. For that reason the most generic configuration files should be ordered first by name. The configuration entries in the xorg.conf file are processed at the end. The /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ directory stores host-specific configuration.
