try to run X itself and see if you get any error, run either startx or
plain X
try on or both of the following:
startx 2> startx.log
X 2> X.log
and check the startx.log and X.log files

Thanks, Erik. I tried that. startx 2>startx.log produces same output
as I described above. X2> X.log produces only the first line of same
output: " X: exec of /usr/bin/X11/XF86_S3 failed"
Additional suggestions welcomed...,, dave
