LCD Samsung monitor at "native" resolution of 1280x1240@60
according to the "Screen Resolution" app, but the xorg.conf file generated
on this fresh installation of Hardy alpha 5 is disturbingly bare:

Section "InputDevice"
 Identifier "Generic Keyboard"
 Driver "kbd"
 Option "XkbRules" "xorg"
 Option "XkbModel" "pc105"
 Option "XkbLayout" "us"
EndSection

Section "InputDevice"
 Identifier "Configured Mouse"
 Driver "mouse"
EndSection

Section "Device"
 Identifier "Configured Video Device"
EndSection

Section "Monitor"
 Identifier "Configured Monitor"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
 Identifier "Default Screen"
 Monitor "Configured Monitor"
 Device "Configured Video Device"
EndSection

Shouldn't there be a section for DRI as well ?
(saw nothing relevant to GLX accel in "xdpyinfo" output)

On the plus side, the keyboard settings issue seems resolved.
