This is likely a problem with XFree86. What graphics chip are you using?
Something to try is to boot into runlevel 3, run
startx >/tmp/tmp.txt 2>&1
And mail the resulting output to the list. This will be exactly what
XFree86 is thinking. Also post both XF86Config and XF86Config-4, as well
as where the symlink /etc/X11/X is pointing (I think that's where it is).
Anyway, that should help.
