Hi,
why are you not using Xconfigurator or any other
program to configurate your box?
If you do so you will notice the differences between
the 3.3.6 and the 4.x.x format (no more section
keyboard or mouse but sections inputdevices with
identifiers).
A driver has to be specified with your graphic card
and you basically only need modes in the screen
section.
If you are unhappy with what comes out then you use
the information in your old XF86Config and hack the
new one...
cheers
Lionel
