Hi,
I got this message when I had a wrong X server installed...
My Debian 2 didn't copy and didn't make a link the real server to X
(directory: /usr/bin/X11). My system runs X as servers and produced this
message before I had copied my server (XF86_S3 for my S3 Trio 64V; if you do
not have a card with a special server the XF86_SVGA should be ok).
Try to rename X to X.old and then copy your server to X:
cd /usr/bin/X11
mv X X.old
cp XF86_SVGA X
I hope this will help you
