Hello,
I tried to install Arch Linux., and every step till X11 succeeds. I use auto configuration, since in Ubuntu this works as well. The driver is vesa. When I start startx Arch gives me a malformed screen. Not just black, but with some horizontal stripes, that moves when I'm moving my mouse.. Can you help me fix this?

Hi t.
I'll suppose that the chipset Intel UMA works like the GMA (i'm not an expert about it)
I would try changing the graphics driver.
First of all, install it:
pacman -S xf86-video-intel
Then, you can make a good xorg.conf file with:
Xorg -configure
It should automatically select the right driver (if it is installed).
You will have to move it to the /etc/X11 folder:
mv /root/xorg.conf.new /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Please, notice that the new Kernel requires to enable KMS for the Intel chipset to work fine. Take a look at http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Intel
I hope this will help.
Bye!
