I upgraded my system today after a long drought. I'm running a mythtv system on a CRT tv. There is an LCD monitor on the system.
I couldn't get X to work, as it couldn't find my mouse (or apparently keyboard) since the system appeared frozen after I started X. I found information that, if I understood it correctly, seemed to indicate that xorg.conf is no longer needed and hal should be installed to run things. I put hal in my rc.conf, rebooted, and now I have a working X configuration running gnome.
My TV is another matter. Typically during boot up the picture on the TV rolls vertically until I start X, then it stabilizes. Now, it is continuing to roll and is in black and white. I haven't found anything to help me figure this one out, so I thought I'd ask while I continue to look.

Duh, basic Arch-ness. If the default doesn't work, build your own! I rebuilt an xorg.conf file with info from my old one that wouldn't work, but based on the new one generated from hwd -x.
Seems to work fine so far.
