Following is the config file I am using on a ThinkPad 600 and post-1.5
NetBSD (I originally grabbed it from someone else's email message a
year or so ago). I have my system setup to do xdm, so I don't have an
X startup log message handy. If this config file doesn't work for you,
let me know and I'll run X manually with your config to see if I
encounter the same problems.
