X won't log in (was Re: Xpmac can't find font 'fixed')
The Opt-F1,F2,etc trick wasn't working, and neither does this.
To those who wanted the logs, it was actually at /var/log/xdm.log
And, to those who are saying that it's unsupported, the 'real' X server
doesn't seem to support valkyrie video devices.
The log follows:
Woowoo

Xlib: Client is not authorized to connect to Server
Error: Can't open display: :0
Looks like it's saying that I'm not authorized to connect to the
server. I tried logging in as root from the X login screen, figuring
that root of all people should be authorized to do anything, but the
same thing happened, except it was client 3 in the log.
Hey, when it's saying that the connection to :0.0 is refused, does :0.0
refer to localhost? If so, could the port that it's connecting to be
blocked by a firewall? If so, does a firewall come installed on the
standard installation? (I'll bet it does) How do I control it, and
what port must I open? (All just guesses here)
Thanks for any help.

Also, my original problem seems to have been solved by a weekend away
from it - when I booted the computer again, an X login screen
appeared.
I entered my name and password, and pressed return. The screen
flickered, and turned blue, and then reloaded the login screen. I
can't get a prompt back, and I can't login. What can I do now?
Ctrl-Option-Backspace should end the X task, but it may automatically
restart. Ctrl-Option-F2 to go to console 2 from the X console.
