I figured if somebody has enough knowledge and determination to feel
comfortable looking at the bug report (which I linked), they would probably do
so.

Happy to add the xorg.conf change suggestion to the FAQ. Obviously that might
cause problems with other software, or even prevent Xorg from loading if the
user misconfigures xorg.conf. Given the wiki seems to mainly be aimed towards
beginners with both Wine and the command line, I wasn't initially sure it was
the place for it.
