XFree on a laptop?

Aloha-

When it rains it pours, this time a world of confusion.

Got a HP Pavilion XH485 laptop, pretty similar to a n5430. There's a great
web page on linux and that model:
http://www.deater.net/john/PavilionN5430.html

Unfortunately the notes on XFree don't totally apply, and startx crashes
with "no screens found".

Graphics chip is Trident CBXP (Cyber blade), 8m sgram, 15" XGA TFT.

Appended are two files, one is the XF86Config I tried (from above named
site). Second is the XFree86.0.log.

Suggestions?

Thanks-
Rod G
