Id din't know that Sometime ago I was trying to make an old nvidia video card work with my pc in With Fedora. One of the instructions was to open the xorg. change the drive to replace the noveau drive, or something like that. I think it wasant't even 2 years ago.
Then I just installed ubuntu and isntalled with apt-get install nvidia-wathever-version. And worked like a charm for me.
When you need to configuration, best practice is to put only the necessary configuration in a configuration snippet inside /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ without creating a full xorg.conf file.
