Thanks for all your help with this!

As you suspected, I did not have mesa-libGL installed. I installed this,
rebooted, and..........I still can't get to an x windows session!!! The
last 3 messages I see during the startup before the machine hangs is:

[ok] Started gnome display manager
[ok] Started System Logging Service
[ok] Started Virtualization daemon

There are no x related errors in the Xorg.logs.

I'm not quite sure what to do now...
