no need to change the default.

Multiple FontPath entries are allowed (which are concatenated together),
as well as specifying multiple comma-separated entries in one FontPath
command (or a combination of both methods)

Server flags section.
**********************************************************************
Section "ServerFlags"
Uncomment this to cause a core dump at the spot where a signal is
received. This may leave the console in an unusable state, but may
provide a better stack trace in the core dump to aid in debugging
Option "NoTrapSignals"
Uncomment this to disable the <Crtl><Alt><BS> server abort sequence
This allows clients to receive this key event.
Option "DontZap"
Uncomment this to disable the <Crtl><Alt><KP_+>/<KP_-> mode switching
sequences. This allows clients to receive these key events.
Option "Dont Zoom"
Uncomment this to disable tuning with the xvidtune client. With
it the client can still run and fetch card and monitor attributes,
but it will not be allowed to change them. If it tries it will
receive a protocol error.
Option "DisableVidModeExtension"
Uncomment this to enable the use of a non-local xvidtune client.
Option "AllowNonLocalXvidtune"
Uncomment this to disable dynamically modifying the input device
(mouse and keyboard) settings.
Option "DisableModInDev"
Uncomment this to enable the use of a non-local client to
change the keyboard or mouse settings (currently only xset).

For most OSs the protocol can be omitted (it defaults to "Standard").
When using XQUEUE (only for SVR3 and SVR4, but not Solaris),
uncomment the following line.
Option "Protocol" "Xqueue"
Option "AutoRepeat" "500 30"
Specify which keyboard LEDs can be user-controlled (eg, with xset(1))
Option "Xleds" "1 2 3"
Option "LeftAlt" "Meta"
Option "RightAlt" "ModeShift"
To customise the XKB settings to suit your keyboard, modify the
lines below (which are the defaults). For example, for a non-U.S.
keyboard, you will probably want to use:
Option "XkbModel" "pc102"
If you have a US Microsoft Natural keyboard, you can use:
Option "XkbModel" "microsoft"
#
Then to change the language, change the Layout setting.
For example, a german layout can be obtained with:
Option "XkbLayout" "de"
or:
Option "XkbLayout" "de"
Option "XkbVariant" "nodeadkeys"
#
If you'd like to switch the positions of your capslock and
control keys, use:
Option "XkbOptions" "ctrl:swapcaps"
These are the default XKB settings for XFree86
Option "XkbRules" "xfree86"
Option "XkbModel" "pc101"
Option "XkbLayout" "us"
Option "XkbVariant" ""
Option "XkbOptions" ""

Baudrate and SampleRate are only for some Logitech mice. In
almost every case these lines should be omitted.

Emulate3Buttons is an option for 2-button Microsoft mice
Emulate3Timeout is the timeout in milliseconds (default is 50ms)

ChordMiddle is an option for some 3-button Logitech mice

The chipset line is optional in most cases. It can be used to override
the driver's chipset detection, and should not normally be specified.
Chipset "generic"
The Driver line must be present. When using run-time loadable driver
modules, this line instructs the server to load the specified driver
module. Even when not using loadable driver modules, this line
indicates which driver should interpret the information in this section.
Driver "vga"
The BusID line is used to specify which of possibly multiple devices
this section is intended for. When this line isn't present, a device
section can only match up with the primary video device. For PCI
devices a line like the following could be used. This line should not
normally be included unless there is more than one video device
installed.
