It looks like your XF86Config is incomplete. Did you use some sort of
tool to configure X? a.e. xf86config, XF86Setup etc.?
I only have an "extmod" listed as a module and the error message also
says that it expects a "module" section, but doesn't find it.
a.e.:
Section "Module"
Load "GLcore"
Load "bitmap"
Load "dbe"
Load "ddc"
Load "dri"
Load "extmod"
Load "freetype"
Load "glx"
Load "int10"
Load "pex5"
Load "record"
Load "speedo"
Load "type1"
Load "vbe"
Load "xie"
EndSection
I would necessarily copy these values directly into your config file,
but, it does give a bit of a clue about what belongs there and what the
syntax is.
I would also look at the info pages for the section and subsection for
clues on what sort of values "could" be put there. If you used the
graphical interface that comes with "XF86Setup", the correct values
should be there. If you installed Woody straight and used "anXious"(?),
I would take a quick peek at the Docus.
HTH.
