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?

[2] (although some of the more complex DEs should probably be removed 
from that list, as they are unmaintained and probably broken)
