Heeeeeeeelp with xorg install

Hi, I'be following the wiki to install arch on my 1000h.
ethernet works, wifi card seems to work too.

I CAN NOT get xorg installed, I use pacman -S xorg.
I can see the xorg group packages, but most of them fail the install.
the error message is:
looking for inter-conflicts...
util-linux-ng conflicts with e2fsprogs, remove e2fsprogs ? y/n

i answer yes

failed to prepare transaction ( could not satisfy dependencies)

any help (i'm really new in arch, have de feelling that the solution's not veeeery complicated).

thanks

Re: Heeeeeeeelp with xorg install

but when I said Yes
then i have:
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)...

cause crypsetup, jfsutils, resierfsprgos and xfsprogs need e2fsprogs.

[testing] is a repository that contains the very latest packages that are not yet considered stable enough to be included in the other repos -- it's there to allow people help developers in testing upcoming new software.
