Sorry to hear you are having problems. [1] lists the ways of starting the X server we think should work [2]. The simplest way to run the X server is using 'XWin' at a command line. Does that work? I'm guessing probably not. Does it hang? Or exit after doing nothing? Does 'XWin -logverbose 3' produce any more information?
