You can run X without xorg.conf as you are using an Intel card. Just give it a try.
Besides, could you please describe how it crashed? blank screen, freeze, or some error outputs? And paste your ~/.xinitrc please

Hi.
Beside leeyee's tipps, you could also try the following:
Delete your xorg.conf, start hal (with "/etc/rc.d/hal start") and then try startx again.

There is a small white square which pinting "jzh@jzh$" on my screen left-top and the screen is freeze.No error outputs.
My .xinitrc is here:
#!/bin/sh
#
# ~/.xinitrc
#
# Executed by startx (run your window manager from here)
# exec gnome-session
# exec startkde
# exec startxfce4
# ...or the Window Manager of your choice
exec xterm
Afer all,I will try you method first.

Aehm, if I understand that right, than your X is running correctly
put a # infront of exec xterm and add a line with
exec yourDisplayManagerStarter
If you installed gnome/kde/xfce4, you could also uncomment the gnome/kde/or xfce - line above.
