Xorg.0.log 12.04 versus 12.10 seg fault

I have two hard drives, one is full, one is empty.  The full drive runs 
12.04 and LXDE works fine.

I want to install 12.10 to the *other* drive but am running into video 
card or resolution problems.  I installed 12.10 from the minimal cd and 
selected "xubuntu desktop" as it's an older machine, so it's "installed" 
but X isn't working.

It will start to boot to xubuntu and then oscillate to "cannot display 
this video mode" finally resolving to the latter.

It's almost like a hardware (videocard) problem, except that the 12.04 
LXDE environment looks fine, so that rules out a hardware problem.

Driver?  Config?  Something else?

Here follows, from 12.04, running lxde fine:
