1.17.1-4 xorg-server documentation update


Good evening,

I have been trying to connect to a raspberry PI over XDMCP, but have been having issues getting it to work.

After looking at both the cygwin/X and raspberry PI sites, I did a search for 'lightdm connecting to xserver windows' and found a post that suggested using VcXsrv. As it uses an option of -from that seems to work, so I have tried it with cygwin/X and also got connected.

It would seem your User's Guide needs to be updated, it needs to include the -from option when making XDMCP connections.
