That's what the -k flag is for. To get a list of all the man pages
related to xorg, try:

	man -k xorg

As a general rule, any command you run, any config file you might need
to edit and every API call you might want to make should have a man
page. Sadly, the GNOME people don't seem to understand this, and so
you're generally out of luck if you're expecting sane documentation
for a GNOME app. But for most other things[1], the man pages are
usually pretty good.

    thing applies there.
