My read was that he thought he wasn't supposed to be able to use xorg.con* to do it, but also it sounded like in Fedora he got good results without any manual intervention like seems 13.2 is requiring. If the latter it could be that his Fedora was a string of updates rather than fresh installs that date back originally to before full automagic X configuration became the assumption. Remember, we used to use SaX2, which no longer esists, and SaX3 is limited in functionality.
