Thanks for your HELP! Xorg problem

I've installed the base system successfully, and used pacman to get xorg packages.
Then I ran xorgconfig.
All seems OK, but I cannot startx.
If I run xorgcfg, there's just a X-like mouse pointer and black background.

/etc/X11/xorg.conf  shows:
# Device configured by xorgconfig:

Section "Device"
    Identifier  "My Video Card"
    Driver      "vga"
    # unsupported card
    #VideoRam    262144
    # Insert Clocks lines here if appropriate
EndSection

What's the problem?
My video card is Intel integrated.
Did I made some mistake when configuring, or I need a driver?

The wiki is absolutely the best resource for problems like these: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Beg … figuring_X
You probably need "i810" or "intel" driver.

Re: Thanks for your HELP! Xorg problem

vga is already a mistake. use intel since it's newer. any problem you can move to i810 anytime.


I need real, proper pen and paper for this.
