Added this to the device section as shown below. The weird part is
that when I try to do a "startx" it acts like it is going to work and
I just get one bar of color across a black screen. I also can not do
a Ctrl Atl F1 or F2 to get a different tty session. The only way I
can restart is to hold down the power button or ssh in to issue a
reboot command. I get totally locked out of the machine. When I ssh
to the box top shows Xorg just hammering at the processor with like
90% utilization.
Thanks for the help!
