What exactly do you want to solve?

That is right. The new X server doesn't need an xorg.conf file anymore
rather gathering the devices with dbus. It may be (still) installed
after an upgrade from Jaunty. You can build your own though if you need
or want to add something like those accelerations from my tutorial

But I DID post my complete xorg.conf. [1]

The file is located in

/etc/X11/

the complete path is

/etc/X11/xorg.conf

The lines after (quote)
     "Here my xorg.conf for the intel graphics-chipset:"

There is nothing more than that, believe me!

For the nvidia driver an xorg.conf file is needed (AFAIK) an will be
installed by the package 'nvidia-glx-xxx' (where 'xxx' is the installed
nvidia driver-version, eg. 185). That package comes with the binary
"/usr/bin/nvidia-xconfig" and will automaticaly install an xorg.conf for
your purpose when installing it with the jockey script.
But since nvidia uses an xorg.conf, it is important to at least remove
that nvidia xorg.conf while booting with intel graphics. The further
scripts in my tutorial will do that for you.


Regards,

Raphael
