 ** Packages Hierarchy
 
+*** System-wide Packages (late-packages)
+
 The default location that SXEmacs searches for packages is
 `$prefix/share/sxemacs/'.  The same as for the user-init-file, a
 symlink is all you need to get up and running.
 
-    $ ln -s /usr/local/lib/xemacs /usr/local/share/sxemacs RET
+    $ ln -svfn /usr/local/lib/xemacs /usr/local/share/sxemacs
+
+*** User Packages in ${HOME} (early-packages)
+
+For packages that you keep in your ${HOME}, the preferred location is:
+${XDG_DATA_HOME}/sxemacs.  This is normally ${HOME}/.local/share/sxemacs,
+and SXEmacs will use that if ${XDG_DATA_HOME} is not set.
+
+These packages may also be located in ~/.sxemacs if that is where you
+have your user-init-directory set to.

+*** XCreateIC fails at startup
+
+SXEmacs sometimes fails to create the input context with XCreateIC on
+non-C languages.  SXEmacs will include the values of the LANG and

+*** Text gets garbled/corrupted with Xorg ATI driver
+
+Some versions of the Xorg ATI driver present display issues where text
+display gets corrupted.  Because of the conservative way SXEmacs
+updates the screen it is more susceptible to these issues than other
+applications.

+Some users have reported the problem goes away when using proprietary
