Sorry I ranted. It's more a problem with the XFree side of Linux. Unfortunately, I don't think they can keep up with the plethora of hardware out there, and there isn't an alternative (that I know of). Every version of Linux I've ever seen runs the same XFree. I agree with you on the "Until Linux becomes a major player on the desktop" part, they will never get there without a good standard API toolkit and a much more robust XFree.
