Anyone have any idea how to convert the XF86Config file to an Xconfig file
used by the MetroX server?  X works wonderfully when using the XFree86
servers, but Metro fails horribly.  I tried hacking Xconfig a little but
met with little success.  It's surprising that Xconfigurator can so
accurately guess and Metro doesn't even come close.  I assume that must be
because the XF86Config file is just so much more detailed than the Xconfig
file.

Any ideas!

Seeya,
Paul
