Thanks. That got X working again, although it turned out that I have no |
| 32 |
xorg.conf although there *is* and xorg.conf.example. The file I wound |
| 33 |
up changing was XF86Config!!! But I'm definitely using xorg. |

I suppose this is a last-ditch attempt to start that's used when the |
| 36 |
regular config file is not found. |

Now back to tracking down the other errors. |
