[ale] Another nvidia question

Fedora doesn't come with xorg.conf but that doesn't mean you don't need
it.  For our widescreen Dell Monitors Fedora doesn't seem to know
anything about them until we manually create the xorg.conf.

I don't think you need to specify the driver in xorg.conf with recent
version of X. Fedora 10 and later versions don't even create an
xorg.conf by default. The one I have in Ubuntu is very minimal.
