Me too . . . must have been some "divine intervention" . . . as I was about
to give up on it for the day. I believe it was the choice for "fbdev"
driver that is the workhorse driver

For the sake of correctness I added a new bug:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/xorg-server/+bug/1607891
If you like just add the relevant data with "apport-collect" to this bug
after "r128" failed.

Added the upstream bug to this tracker. Then I realized that strictly

"r128" is the appropriate driver for your card but obiously does not
work properly on your hardware. It would be a good idea to let the
upstream devs know that. xorg/driver/xf86-video-r128 is actively
maintained and still receives patches (last one 8 days ago). You could

Check your boot messages with "journalctl -k" and your
/var/log/Xorg.0.log then you will get a hint what went wrong with r128.
On current Ubuntu versions there is no need for an xorg.conf, only if
you need to tune some specific parameters. No fiddling around with "sudo
Xorg-configure" needed.

@ernst:
I saw one of my problems, on the Xorg configure I didn't run "sudo service
lightdm stop" first . . . maybe I'll try that later or tomorrow . . . still
wondering why "r128" didn't show up in "lsmod" . . . .

@ernst:
Many, many thanks for the details . . . I can see numerous "errors" showing
up as the OS loads, including something about the "r128" "failing," I think
we've discussed some of these things before . . . but, since for the most
part "things were working" I didn't mess with it.
But, indeed,
Had a closer look at your Xorg.log:

Fritz Hudnut, I think your dist-upgrade to yakkety test is sufficient
(i.e. no need to fresh install).
Despite this, I don't quite see what you mean. Could you please attach
the image unedited? Launchpad can handle files that are MBs in size.
