Description 
If /etc/X11/xorg.conf contains an RgbPath line (used in previous Xorg versions,
now obsolete), then Xorg 1.5 prints an error message and refuses to start:

(++) Using config file: "/etc/X11/xorg.conf"
Parse error on line 9 of section Files in file /etc/X11/xorg.conf
        "RgbPath" is not a valid keyword in this section.
(EE) Problem parsing the config file
(EE) Error parsing the config file

Fatal server error:

Work Around 
Remove RGBPath lines from xorg.conf files.
Comments 
*** Test Case ***
Make sure Xorg can start normally when /etc/X11/xorg.conf includes a line
such as:
        RgbPath      "/usr/X11/lib/X11/rgb"
in the "Files" section.
