Need Help Xorg configuration Acer Extensa 4420

I have a new laptop Acer Extensa 4420.

Arch installs, but Xorg is not configured correctly.  I can run startx and get to fluxbox, but when I try to exit the computer freezes and gives me a black screen.  I need to force quit to turn the computer off.  During the Xorg configuration CTRL-ALT-Backspace did the same.

Also, when I download Abiword, it does not work.  It types the first letter then continues to type in the same spot. 

Thanks for any help.

I am using the ati non proprietary driver since Catalyst does not work.

Perhaps posting the contents of /etc/X11/xorg.conf and /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old will provide some further information which might be used to aid you in finding a solution.
