Need to Kill Xorg @ Start

Doing well on an install.  On the second machine I have ever done with Arch but I have this odd bug I can't smack.

When I boot machine and starts to bring up the Display Manager, it goes black.  Huh...well crap.  So I jump over to another tty, login as root, and "killall Xorg".  X then restarts and my DM (LightDM) kicks up and everything proceeds normally.

I'm puzzled!  Where in the config have I messed up that I need to kill Xorg when it boots up?

Thanks to any shots anyone has for this.  Bonus Internet points to you!  You guys rock.

Re: Need to Kill Xorg @ Start

Reinstalled LightDM.  No more black screens at startup so far.  I'll update if anything changes.
