With the current xorg, you do not need a xorg.conf file. If you do
have a xorg.conf file, it takes the settings from there and then does
whatever else needs to be done by using HAL. For example, to just
use the proprietary driver and not change anything else that X does
via HAL, the xorg.conf should _only_ contain
Section "Device"
Identifier "NVIDIA_Device"
Driver "nvidia"
EndSection
This is the setup that I am running, and everything is working fine.
Running the nvidia xconfig utility produces a _complete_ xorg.conf
file, which I wanted to avoid using.
