Just to give you the idea of why this is a good thing :-)
some years ago when I was using woody, an upgrade of X wiped away any
changes in a customly configured XF86Config-4 -- I'm sure the need for
these commands is to prevent just that problem
(ow, I meant to write that to the original poster but, anyway, it'll
show up in the thread)
