I've managed to get x to start as root (login at runlevel 3). I can log in as a user (again, runlevel 3), but x will refuse to start (partially different errors). At first, I thought this could be down to an error in the .gconf directory, so I renamed it, but it still failed to log me into X (it's complaining about there being two fields instead of one or something similar). I know the x server is running fine otherwise I couldn't log in as root and start x (bad practice, but I had to test the server somehow!). I've not tried S/init 4/login/startx yet but will later. Downgrading x and evdev makes no difference (first thing I tried).
