General Information
Be sure so recompile input/video drivers like nvidia-drivers and xf86-input-evdev against the new server ABI when upgrading.
When there are no available nvidia-drivers which support the recent X.Org Server release you can try to pass the -ignoreABI switch to X, for example the configuration for KDE.
File: /usr/share/config/kdm/kdmrc
ServerCmd=/usr/bin/X -br -novtswitch -quiet -ignoreABI
X.Org Server 1.8 and greater
Since X.Org Server 1.8 udev has superseded HAL, it also adds xorg.conf.d directory support to simplify configuration. You no longer need a /etc/X11/xorg.conf or the previous HAL .fdi files.
File: /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-evdev.conf
# Catch-all evdev loader for udev-based systems
# We don't simply match on any device since that also adds accelerometers
# and other devices that we don't really want to use. The list below
# matches everything but joysticks.
