Note that Xorg -configure seems to fail to detect the mouse device, but gives an otherwise good file.


Purely for completeness (since Sean is switched to a Nvidea card now)... Xorg -configure does not enable non-root users to have DRI enabled, so I needed to append to xorg.conf:

        Section "DRI"
                Mode 0666
        EndSection


Best wishes
