Excerpt from http://lists.x.org/archives/xorg-devel/2011-March/020481.html: The Xorg & xorg.conf substitutions are leftover from the transitional period where some distros were building our sources with the XFree86 and XF86config names until they had time to adjust the rest of their packages/installer/config code to the new names. This will fix inconsistencies and prevent the creation of new unneeded sed patterns.

This is a submodule to access linux framebuffer devices. It is supported to work as helper module (like vgahw) for the chipset drivers. There are functions for saving/restoring/setting video modes, set palette entries, and a few more helper functions. Some of them can be hooked directly into ScrnInfoRec. In ../drivers/fbdev is a "chipset" driver. It is a simple, non-accelerated and hardware-independent driver which works on top of this fbdevhw submodule.
