There actually are error messages, if you got the same
problem that I got -- namely, that /usr/bin/X doesn't exist.
Symlink /usr/bin/X to /usr/bin/Xorg and you should be all
set.

Dapper is hosed in a number of ways. Ifup and ifdown don't
seem to work now, and I have to manually do 'dhclient'. It's
kind of a mess.
