Unfortunately, if that log comes from an installation where the graphics
are currently working, it doesn't tell us anything :/ Xorg.0.log is
per-session; it only logs the _current_ X session. So that log is from
the X that's working fine in your installation, and doesn't tell us
what's going wrong on the installed system.

Let us know if you're still having trouble when this install completes,
and we'll try and think of something.
