hi guys:
recent days i have updated my xorg-server to 1.9.2, and noticed that some error logs output:
[ 19.423] (EE) Failed to load module "vesa" (module does not exist, 0)
[ 19.424] (EE) Failed to load module "fbdev" (module does not exist, 0)
i do not compile these two modules in kernel, and not want the two modules to be loaded by X server automatically.
although the errors seem harmless, i DO want them to be removed. does someone know how to modify the xorg.conf ?

-thanks

The way to get rid of those error messags is to install xf86-video-vesa and xf86-video-fbdev.

They are always loaded on X start and used only as fallback if no chipset specific driver for your graphics is found.
