I suppose this is a last-ditch attempt to start that's used when the

Now back to tracking down the other errors.

/etc/X11/xorg.conf
You might want to try /dev/input/mice
Here is the section out of my xorg.conf:
Section "InputDevice"
# Identifier and driver
Identifier "Mouse1"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
Option "ChordMiddle"
Thanks. That got X working again, although it turned out that I have no
xorg.conf although there *is* and xorg.conf.example. The file I wound
up changing was XF86Config!!! But I'm definitely using xorg.
