[Foresight-distro] Foresight VMware appl not coming up in GUI

Hi. I just grabbed the Foresight VMware appliance from 
http://www.rpath.com/rbuilder/project/foresight/

And when I boot it, it just leaves me at a console login
prompt. 

After a minute or so, a message hits the console including
the following text:

Data incomplete in file /etc/X11/xorg.conf
        At least one Device section is required.
(EE) Error parsing the config file

Fatal server error:
no screens found

Failed to start the X server

and so on.
It seems a bit odd to me that a ready-to-run VMware
instance of Linux would be published in this condition.

Advice?

thanks,
John D. Porter
