Further info: I booted the F9 Live CD and the display was configured
correctly. Turns out there is no /etc/X11/xorg.conf and X just uses an
internal default.

So I removed xorg.conf in my Preview setup to see what would happen. It
still failed in the same way.

I notice that when the display goes black there is apparently a desktop
still there. The cursor changes shape (arrow or I-beam) according to
where it is on the screen. I just can't see anything except the cursor.
