[Solved] Xorg Macbook Pro 4,1 Errors

Question

Hello everyone. It's my first time here and I've come with issues that I was hoping to get some help with. After finally getting Arch onto my Macbook Pro 4,1 (Early 2008), I'm stumped with Xorg. For reference, after logging in the first time and setting up my wifi and the base Xorg configuration, I ran:
sudo pacman -S nvidia
sudo pacman -U /mnt/usb/lib32-nvidia-utils-331.20-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz
Long story short, I rebooted as per the instructions then ran:
startx
but received errors. Below is my xorg.conf followed by the Xorg.0.log file. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I tried installing that, removed nvidia because of the conflicts, restarted then ran it again. Still errors. I've included the updated log file:
