nothing is showing up in logs as far as i can tell. It didn't start before X worked though. Furthermore, now that X is set up, my terminals are completely unusable. Every other letter is shifted about half a screen off.
Are you using the normal text consoles, a VESA console, or some native frame buffer driver? Is X set to use the framebuffer interface?
How do i tell?
OK, with text consoles vs linux console framebuffer it's usually a boot-time option passed to the kernel. I seem to remember that digging through the output of 'dmesg' will normally tell you. On many Linux distros, the machine boots with a penguin in the top left corner as the kernel inits if it's using a frame buffer (at least with vesafb).
