xdm starts?  It must not be starting comletely as it starts X itself.  Try
disabling xdm by either uninstalling it (preffered) or doing a
"/etc/init.d/xdm stop" and then a "update-rc.d -f xdm remove" (I think,
please read the manpage first).  Then try to startx.  Maybe you will get
different error messages?

Do you have the svga xserver installed?  I assume so because it should have
said "file not found" if you didn't...
