Yes,
It says command not found.
I also discovered that the config utility doesnt place the xorg.conf in
the /etc/X11 file . Several people told me that it should. Moved to
there manually and was able to fix a mouse error manually then.
I think that twm or some other window manager is loading because of some
error.
Go at it later have to go on a call.
