X fails after configuration for nvidia

Hi all,

I have installed proprietary nvidia driver just after installation of arch but I could not configure X to use it.

When there is no xorg.conf file X just works fine, but if I created it with nvidia-xconfig or manually add a conf file xorg.conf which includes Driver "nvidia" as described in NVIDIA Optimus page, X does not want to start.

I added additional information and logs below.

Any help? Thanks.
