xorg.conf: Howto ignore onboard card?

[Danny Winn]

Hello Kevin,

you're right, the option "WITH_GALLIUM" was left over from my 
"make.conf" template. I will rebuild the necessary ports without it.

I'm currently using "xorg-minimal" instead of "xorg-server", but I think 
I'll remove it and use "xorg-server" instead, just in case.

Thank you.


Regards
Danny
