It might be important to know what the error messages or warnings were,
and what you did to get rid of them. If I remember correctly, you could
start Xorg 7.0 when we discussed about your whiteglass mouse cursor, so
what kind of problems did arise? Did you do another upgrade?
As a first, very general suggestion: Try to put your commands into
$HOME/.xinitrc and see if that takes precedence over whatever is in the
system-wide xinitrc. You could also try to reinstall the package
"xbase-clients".
