Thanks, Urs.  Booting with norhgb didn't change anything, but then I trie
d
"nox" and that got me a console session.  After I logged in as sluser, I 

was able to start an X session with "startx" and everything seemed normal

except that the time was off by 4 hours (ntpd wasn't running).

This machine has a Radeon X1300 card - actually I think it's on the
motherboard - and I've been using version 8.36 of the linux driver from t
he
Radeon website, with "fglrx" as the driver in my xorg.conf file.
