I've started it from ttys a few times, but I gave up after a few days. 
Since then I've tried starting it manually (both with and without the 
-nodaemon option) every time I've upgraded something related to either 
the system or X. Last time a few hours ago, just before I wrote my 
original mail about this, after upgrading xorg-server from 1.4_2,1 to 
1.4_3,1.
