my understanding is that building your own is only required if you need to
support special hardware like video acceleration.
the config on the otherhand will almost always need to be tweaked in my
experience.
in the end it will all depend on what applications you need to support.
the default config is always a good starting point. one word of wisdom,
always make a copy of configuration files to save as a baseline to go back to
before you start making changes.

Oh, I have slipped the surly bonds of DOS,
and danced the skies on Linux silvered wings.
