N Niatross Feb 1, 2013 #1 Does anybody know the last version of Xorg that required the "freetype" module to be loaded in the xorg.conf? Also...what year was it? I have been reading on this and it looks like X11 uses the X font library (libXfont) to load the freetype module automatically. Is this correct?
