Yes, FastCGI & SuExec works as well, the key is the processes must run under the merchants user ID. There are some people who prefer using SuPHP as it has features that SuExec does not. It is not deprecated (perhaps it is generally going out of fashion) and is still maintained by the author. Many of the typical X-Cart customer hosting environments will be running suphp rather than FastCGI.
