   I would boot at run level 3   
   log in as root,   
       mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /root/xorg.conf   
      
   then reboot at run level 3 again, log in as user and try   
       startx   
      
   Still broke, log out. log in as root   
      
      
    and run   
   /usr/bin/XFdrake   
   Pick xorg and vesa driver and see what happens.
