Listmates,

with "kdemod3-complete", installed xorg, and the nvidia driver for my 8800GT.
nvidia module loads fine. First attempt resulted in the following errors:

[01:20 archangel:/usr/share/fonts] # grep \(EE\) /var/log/Xorg.0.log
        (WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown.
(EE) No devices detected.

Try getting rid of the xorg.conf file altogether. X can start without it, and often works just fine (and makes pretty sane choices) when you start it this way.

Assuming that works, if you then want to use an xorg.conf file:

X will output to the Xorg.0.log the contents of the assumed xorg.conf file that it used when it started up. Copy those contents out to your xorg.conf, and then start tweaking from there.

HTH,
