Does the machine lock up when you run X? 2. Do you know what video card you're using? 3. What is the output of pciconf -lv, dmesg? 4. What does Xorg -configure produce? Finally, can you change the driver setting in the xorg.conf.new to vesa and run X -conf /root/xorg.conf.new and see if it works then? Good luck!
