Yes, that was part of the problem.  X seems to start.

I use an xorg.conf that has only screen0 and vesa as the driver.

I copied xorg.conf.new, that worked, to /etc/X11/xorg.conf.  startx
works.

I survive for a while with vesa.

To get full functionality, I need a driver for Raedon.  The laptop has
two graphics devices.

Is there a driver that will support the Radeon?
