From the x11 list. Just get it on your clipboard and paste it.
Xorg.logs normally have error messages, it's going to be hard to tell which ones to worry about.

This kernel claims to have the mali video support in it.

And I have since come to the conclusion that it never changes to vt7. If,
at the point it reaches the black screen, first with a few odd blinks to
the cursor, which eventually settles into a 1 second steady blink, but I
then do something like plugging in a usb thing, the logging is spit out
on this screen. This includes the buttons for the wireless keyboard and
wireless mouse. But the keyboard/mouse aren't able to elicit any
response from the system.
At this point, I'm going to take the Xorg.0.log to the Xorg mailing list
for their perusal.
To the xorg list, this is a rockchip rock64, with 4GB of dram, and x is
not starting at boot time. Onboard Mali gfx just now being brought to
life, its been running on an fb till now.

But still trying to bring up xfce4.
Please see the attached log, and tell me what I need next.
And thank you.
