[GLLUG] Wanting to write my own xorg.conf

Well, I used Charles' xorg.conf, and it worked out at first before messing
with video. However, when I did aticonfig, I ran into a problem... It takes
a while to explain, so here's the forum post I put up on
gentoo.orgexplaining what went wrong later on:
http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-460821-highlight-.html
Basically, startx crashes with a "Fatal server error: no screens found"
error, which seems unrelated to the graphics card.... I did end up deleting
the following section from xorg.conf after aticonfig:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Card0"
Driver "i810"
VendorName "Intel Corporation"
EndSection
assuming it was replaced by the ATI values necessary (when it was in there
after aticonfig, X crashed with a different error, which I can't recall at
the moment). If anyone sees what's wrong with my xorg.conf posted in the
link above, lemme know... it would be much appreciated!
