Trouble starting X on Centris 650



Hi,
	I am having trouble getting X to run on my Centris 650.  I have
done the basic installation plus: xlib6g, ctwm, xbase, xfntbase, xpm4g,
xserver-fbdev.  I have configured the mouse using:

mknod /dev/adbmouse c 10 10
ln -sf /dev/adbmouse /dev/mouse

I have aslo done this:

ln -s /etc/X11/Xserver /etc/X11/xserver/xserverrc

and

ln -sf /usr/bin/X11/XF68_FBDev /usr/X11R6/bin/X

I have not made any modifications to XF86Config except to comment ou the
fonts that I did not load (i.e. 75dpi, 100dpi)

when I type "startx" as root, I get:
_______________________________________________________________________________

XFree86 Version 3.3.2.3 / X Window System
(protocol Version 11, revision 0, vendor release 6300)
Release Date: July 15 1998

giving up.
xinit: Connection refused (errno 111): unable to connect to X server
xinit: No such process (errno 3): Server error.

Help!  I don't know what I am doing wrong.  The above is all I am doing.
Is there some other step that I am missing?  I don't understand the output
after "startx" enough to even really know where the problem is coming
from.  Thanks.
