The prop name was different, but this worked.  I could not figure out what to 
say for "Option" in the config file. so I gave up on that.

There is some serious lack of documentation here.  Or else there does not seem 
to be any way to specify this in the confguration files.  I wonder if I should 
file a bug report somewhere (is there a bugzilla.xorg.org or something like 
that?).
