No, that is NOT what "no screens found" means.

"no screens found" means...
        when initialization was done and the first X client was about to
        launch, there's no display available to talk to.

It *usually* means all your modelines were out of spec (even the "default"
ones that X makes up for VESA compliance) or some other illegal combination
led to no screens being safe to use.

'Twas said there were a lot of (II) messages.  Some of them may have been
details about the monitor?  Deletion of bad modes should be (WW) messages.
But autodetected capabilities would be (II) ... 

A glance at the attached config (to the message ahead of this one) doesn't
look out of the ordinary, but I don't have access to that model.  So now
I'm curious about the actual messages.
        startx 2> startx.damage.report

(okay, okay, usually folks use .X.err, or something like, but this would
be a friendlier attachment)
