Hi all,

Is it possible to configure HAL for managing graphic card without any
xorg.conf ?
    

I think so, if you are using generic vesa drivers. I believe if you
need ati/nvidia binary driver you still need to define it in xorg. But
you can leave out all of the modes etc. You just need to define a
screen and a graphics card/driver. Usually the rest will happen
automatically. :)
I'm using 9600 ATI graphic card with fglrx driver, and am going to try the free radeon driver.
 
Thank you Paul,
