Yeah, the VM never even starts, so I don't think
that's an issue.  I have not set the VM resolution to
anything at all, so I assume it would just run at the
default 640x480 boot resolution.

Do you mean:

/usr/X11R6

I installed vanilla xorg out of ports.  Straight
6.2-RELEASE ports tree - did not cvsup it or anything.
