>Description:
	The X(7) man page has gone AWOL in the Xorg system.

	It was seen last on XFree86-based systems (NetBSD-4.x/i386
	over here).  X(7) isn't related to any specific command
	but introduces various general, fundamental concepts of
	the X Window System.  Many other man pages (Xserver, Xorg,
	xterm, xclock, xrdb, ...) refer to it via SEE ALSO.

>How-To-Repeat:
	man X

 No, it was never there in the first place.

 Correct. It is part of "xsrc/xfree" (XFree86) but not part of
 "xsrc/external/mit" (X.org). The problems is that we never
 imported the "xorg-docs" package availalable here:

 	http://xorg.freedesktop.org/releases/individual/doc/

 The missing manual page is e.g. in the "xorg-docs-1.5.tar.bz2" file:

 	tron@colwyn:~/Downloads>tar tjvf xorg-docs-1.5.tar.bz2|grep X.man
 	-rw-r--r--  1 50758    staff      53784 Oct 16  2009 xorg-docs-1.5/man/general/X.man
 	tron@colwyn:~/Downloads>

 	Kind regards
