I generally recommend starting from a skeletal xorg.conf for
xorg-server-1.5 since it significantly reduces the possibility of
configuration glitches. It also makes the file easier to parse for all
parties involved.

But, if what you have now works, no need to change it unless you feel
compelled to.

On a final unrelated note, since you're running 2.6.30-rc1, feel free
to enable DRI and set AccelMethod to EXA to enjoy accelerated EXA and
Xv.

Cheers,
