I did nothing but issue startx. No intervention
to cause the server to shut down.

Selinux or MTRR, whatever it is? See following.

Three selinux packages are installed.
selinux-policy-default
libselinux1
python-selinux
Appears that I shouldn't remove libselinux1 at least.

Active lines are down past the comments.
http://carnot.pathology.ubc.ca/dalton.xorg.conf
yields
http://carnot.pathology.ubc.ca/dalton.Xorg.0.log

Now in the log there is no (EE) and no /dev/fb0.
This is what appears on the screen after startx is issued.
