I needed system-config-display because
  * called by /etc/init.d/livesys-late to provide my livecd with a
xdriver= boot option
  * recover bad hand written xorg.conf
  * recover bad xorg.conf files generated by older versions of
proprietary nvidia drivers

NM is not ready yet,
for example I could not use it to dial xDSL and pass it my password
..etc. [in F9]

hmmm,
we need a system-wide default
and of course we need to allow users to override

talking about my self, I only rely on system-config-keyboard
because I have several problems with other tools
