I have progressed a little further, so I have managed to get
the Xserver to start, but the xorg.conf I did fails to
support the mouse. The touchscreen is also nonfunctional but
A USB keyboard work...
(The mouse actually works while I have the Angstrom splash)

Based on you email, I removed the -screen 240x320 from Xserver
and zeroed out xorg.conf, and now it also boots
but still no touch or hanlding of a mouse.

I have been able to play configure sound graphically,
and played an avi movie in full screen mode,
but mplayer did not find the DISPLAY.
export=DISPLAY=":0.0" fixed, that, but
then mplayer complained about no X compatible driver....



Some issues I have seen:
The X configuration sets up a lot of paths with "X11R6" directories
which are not present in the file system
A file called protocol.txt is missing..

The kernel is not compiled with power managements and
/usr/bin/apm --suspend does not work

There is an alignment trap after the Fontpath is set

Reports AllowEmptyInput is on, and devices using kbd and mouse is off.
WHat does this mean?

Cant find the glx and dri modules...
