I upgraded the kernel to 2.6.8.1.521, but that did not solve the 
problem.

I then modified /etc/X11/xorg.conf, commenting out "Load dri."  I then
modified /etc/X11/gdm/gdm.conf and enabled "AlwaysRestartServer=true"

The screen comes up correctly with a logout.  You can see the server
doing a restart.
