Well, it does not produce working xorg.conf files. However: X -configure
should be prefered; so there is no need for hwd (anymore).
It doesn't provide working xorg.conf files only since xorg 1.5 was moved to extra. That was less than 5 days ago... I believe it will be updated to take the changes into account.
To me, hwd is a very useful tool, so please don't remove it from extra without a second thought.
Well I got to say about this that hwd has never produced a 100% accurate result for me on all kinds of systems. Even my old soundblaster live is wrongly detected as an audigy card. Let alone that I would trust this tool before the official Xorg tools to generate an X config.
