To ask a really dumb question, why are you doing "Xorg -configure"? One reason that there has been a lot of breakage in Xorg -configure is that it is so little used and less often needed. I just start out with an empty xorg.conf file and startx (with a reasonable .xinitrc file). Then, if I need more stuff, I just add it to the xorg.conf file. This sytem is Intel, but all I have in xorg.conf is: Section "Files" ModulePath "/usr/local/lib/xorg/modules" FontPath "/usr/local/lib/X11/fonts/bitstream-vera/" FontPath "/media/Windows7_OS/Windows/Fonts/" FontPath "/usr/local/lib/X11/fonts/GentiumBasic/" FontPath "/usr/local/lib/X11/fonts/webfonts/" FontPath "/usr/local/lib/X11/fonts/dejavu/" FontPath "/usr/local/lib/X11/fonts/urwfonts-ttf/" FontPath "/usr/local/lib/X11/fonts/printmaster" FontPath "/usr/local/lib/X11/fonts/Liberation/" FontPath "/usr/local/lib/X11/fonts/misc/" FontPath "/usr/local/lib/X11/fonts/TTF/" FontPath "/usr/local/lib/X11/fonts/OTF/" FontPath "/usr/local/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/" FontPath "/usr/local/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/" FontPath "/usr/local/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/" EndSection Section "Module" Load "freetype" Load "extmod" Load "record" Load "dbe" Load "glx" Load "dri" Load "dri2" EndSection -- R.
