I'd say one of the most important files is /etc/rc.conf, but there's are lot of other files/folders that are just as important. Whats your problem with the Intel HD Audio? its probably the same problem I had.

No matter what I do it refuse to work, sometime it was working before and it was working perfectly when I installed Arch by Chakra ...

It's the only problem that I have left so I don't really want to reinstall from zero ...

/etc/X11/xorg.conf would be an important one.

I keep a folder for this in my home directory. Any time I have to do more than a couple of minutes' work on some config file, I try to remember to save a copy of it in there as well. (If I don't have to do much work on a file, then there's less reason to save it.)

The main thing I've learned after a couple of re-installs: the answer to the question "Am I really going to forget how to do this?" is "Yes, I am."   :-)

Now corrected !!! But I don't know at all what corrected everything so I cannot post my bloated configuration files ...
