It might be relevant.  I thought Chris was using the word "x200s" as in
"two or more x200 computers", but perhaps he meant the model "x200s".  I
do not have an x200s; I have an x200.

Also, yes, I use Libreboot, but I am not sure why that would matter for
something like xorg, which comes into action late in the boot process,
long after Libreboot hands off control to the operating system.
