Anyone update from XFree86 to Xorg-X11? Any problems? questions? comments? likes? dislikes?

My update on gentoo took about 30 minutes or so and was completely painless. It even uses my old xfree86 conf files.

i heard that some Drivers dont work with xorg very well.

I use Mandrake (Still Learning) and i think it uses Xorg cause some themes dont work with KDE, sometimes get an error with Xorg..

But all in all, its pretty sweet
