<pre>Hi Scott,
I do not think this is an OpenChrome DDX upstream bug.
This is essentially an Arch Linux packaging / configuration bug.
I can say this because of this portion that caught my eyes from Xorg.0.log.

This situation is eerily similar to the situation mentioned in this thread.

This seems to be the solution.

I hope that helps.
