Finally someone else who has/had the same problem.  I always seem to find 
the corner cases and when I report them noone can replicate them.

I tried root and a non-root user and when a xorg.conf was in /root or $HOME 
it was used instead of the xorg.conf in /etc/X11.  I have an updated as of 
Sept 9th rawhide install.  There is no XORGCONFIG environment varible.  I 
start x using startx.  I would be happy to help in tracking this issue down 
if anyone is interested in fixing it.

Thanks,
Jason
