There is a mistake in Gavin's original instructions.  In conf/web.xml, you need to replace the reference to myfaces-impl.jar with jsf-impl.jar.  Here is what it should look like when you are done:

<init-param>
  |          <description>JSF standard tlds</description>
  |          <param-name>tagLibJar0</param-name>
  |          <param-value>jsf-libs/jsf-impl.jar</param-value>
  | </init-param>

I also don't use Eclipse, so I'm not sure what's going on here.  I suspect that Eclipse is looking at the JSF 1.1 DTD.  <el-resolver> is new to JSF 1.2.  Perhaps if you post the error I can help.

Yes, the ones in Seam should work fine.

Note that all of this configuration is already done for you if you use JBoss 4.2 or JBoss 5.0.  JBoss 5.0 has a beta that you can download now.  JBoss 4.2 should have a beta available soon.  Here are the instructions for using JSF in those releases:

The goal for these releases is to make the usability of JSF much like that of JSP.  In other words, you don't have to think about installation.  You just use it if you want it.  I'd love to get some feedback.
