I didn't see any. I rebuilt from scratch and saved the old one. However,
it wasn't very difficult to do, and it fixed all the problems. I'd like to
know where XF86Setup went. That worked and it was easier to use. If xf86cfg is
to replace it, they shouldn't have gotten rid of XF86Setup until xf86cfg was
stable.
