xorg.conf still works fine with the latest incarnations of Xorg. If you
are refering to HAL and such, I don't think it has anything to do with
this particular feature; I'm sure you can use a minimal xorg.conf with
your virtual screen size. Disclaimer: I don't use HAL or dbus and I use
latest stable Xorg (xorg-x11-7.4-r1 and xorg-server-1.6.5-r1).

In the future Xorg will move to a slightly different setup with files
under /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ instead of just one file but I think that's
for xorg-server-1.8... (or even later). And HAL is replaced by libudev
(yay!).

Best regards
