    Now that I have the networking fixed and sort of figured out the mouse
    problem I'm ready to tackle X not starting.

    When I boot I get a couple of attempts for gdm to start. After that
    fails there is an error message stating

    Fatal server error:
    no screens found.

    I tried xf86config and had to abandon it when my video card wasn't
    listed. It wasn't listed as an option during the installation
    process. I'm assuming that that is the problem. Is it likely?

    I did

    apt-cache search radeon

    and found nothing.

    Am I even going in the right direction?

    I'm attaching the error log and config file
