Yes, there are no errors but X doesn't start anyway.

No, it stopped after 10-12 minutes. I checked the file date+time. In three attempts it stopped in three different points.
My impression is there is not enough RAM for the system to work.
On TinyCore Linux I've finally got X to work (in a few minutes, not waiting for a long time), but that o.s. is very low RAM demanding.
And the log message is very similar to the above.

Ending day/need to review this with fresh head--thanks again.You asked me to remove the xorg.conf.in, I used my xorg.conf only.
