Xorg looks in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/, then /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/.
If you would rather use a single-file xorg.conf, you can create it via
"Xorg -configure" (IIRC).

But besides that, I'm wondering about a couple things.
1: You refer to "20-nvidia.conf". I'd assume that this would come from
the nvidia driver, which I see no reference to in your list of packages.

2: You refer to "/usr/share/X11/xorg.c." Is this a typo/abbreviation,
or is Xorg misconfigured?


Thanks,
