X problem - Xserver security setting



I posted this to debian-user because I don't think
it's laptop specific, but have no response - maybe
someone here can help... I'm running potato on a Dell
Latitude CPi D266XT

After upgrading to 2.2r3 I found that X would only
start in 800x600 mode. I tried running XF86Setup again
(maybe not the right way to go about fixing this?) and
successfully got all the way through the setup until
it started the Xserver with 1024x768 resolution and
saved the config file. I then tried startx, and it
didn't. What I got was:

X: cannot read security setting from /etc/X11/Xserver
_X11TransSocketUNIXConnect: Can't connect: errno = 111
giving up.
xinit: Connection refused (erron 111): unable to
connect to X server
xinit: No such process (erron 3): Server error

/etc/X11/Xserver only has one entry - for the SVGA
server.

I tried as root with the same errors. Booting into
Win2K gives me no problems.

What am I doing wrong?

Michael
