I have included dmesg, Xorg.0.log, and a screen shot of top.
Follow booting the computer I lost my screen within like 2 minutes of getting the initial splash screen where the user logs in. I had enough time after logging in to close Orage clock and Xfce tips, then opened Rhythm box, which I never got to see open as I lost the video at that point. Top did not appear to provide much information. I selected as a priority %CPU and then %MEM and each showed minimal usage.
In /var/log/daemon.log I find this snippet being the only thing odd:

In /var/log/gdm3/:0-greeter.log I find a good bit of this info. I'm afraid I do not know what the information means specifically:
